What's the C# equivalent of Java's "for (String currLine: allLines)"?

I've got some Java code along the lines of:

Vector<String> allLines = new Vector<String>();
allLines.add("line 1");
allLines.add("line 2");
allLines.add("line 3");
for (String currLine: allLines) { ... }

Basically, it reads a big file into a lines vector then processes it one at a time (I bring it all in to memory since I'm doing a multi-pass compiler).

What's the equivalent way of doing this with C#? I'm assuming here I won't need to revert to using an index variable.

Actually, to clarify, I'm asking for the equivalent of the whole code block above, not just the for loop.

Solution

  • List<string> can be accessed by index and resizes automatically like Vector.

    So:

    List<string> allLines = new List<string>();
allLines.Add("line 1");
allLines.Add("line 2");
allLines.Add("line 3");
foreach (string currLine in allLines) { ... }
