Find unique strings for a string array
-
public class set { private List theList; public bool Add(T item) { if (theList.Contains(item)) return false; theList.Add(item); return true; } } This is the start of a set class, a container that only contains one of any object.

Thanks Christian, I like your idea. I am surprised why there is no built-in Set class in .Net. :-) regards, George

May be
Array.FindAllcan help you. Check out MSDN for it. Another way could be: 1. Create a list/hashtable. Then loop through the array. 2. Check if the element exists in the list/hashtable. 3. If it does its a duplicate value. Remove it from array. 4. If it doesnt add it to the list/hashtable.C isn't that hard: void (*(*f[])())() defines f as an array of unspecified size, of pointers to functions that return pointers to functions that return void "Always program as if the person who will be maintaining your program is a violent psychopath that knows where you live." - Martin Golding
Hi d@nish, I have studied related MSDN page about Array.FindAll, but I do not think it could help me in my solution. Do you have any pesudo code to show your idea of using Array.FindAll to make a unique string array? regards, George

Generic does means only List.We have some more like Dictionary,SortedList,Queue,Stack but list suits your requirement best.

Thanks for your clarification, Brij! regards, George

Operators.
Could you show more description please? What operators do you think your class provides has advantages over .Net built-in ones? regards, George

Thanks Dan! But there is no such data structure in .Net, correct? regards, George
Hey There isnt an inbuilt one but take a look at this post, or you could even implement your own if you are bored and have some time :P http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10458/is-there-a-set-data-structure-in-net[^] Hope that helps

In my experience and other guys besides me, the performnace feedback of LINQ is bad. :-) What about yours? regards, George
In fact, I did not use LINQ quite often in my project. Hence I could not give you any comment about performance of LINQ, especially without investigating from performance tool. However, I have to admit the creativity of LINQ. For a certain degree, it presents the .net technology tendency-integrate data. Although maybe the final goal is ambitious and full of issues, such as performance, complexity, nobody would ignore the benefits form LINQ. :)

Hi LuckyBoy, I think ising ADO.Net is fine enough, why bothering using LINQ? :-) regards, George

Well, Language Integrated Query, maybe to provide a common QUERY method for various data source from different domains, such as ADO.net, XML, SQL server, is the way how microsoft simplify the access for data and object. But it is still young, so let us try to be nice and patient.
