Attempts to add the specified key and value to the ConcurrentDictionary<TKey,TValue>.

public:
 bool TryAdd(TKey key, TValue value);

public bool TryAdd (TKey key, TValue value);

member this.TryAdd : 'Key * 'Value -> bool

Public Function TryAdd (key As TKey, value As TValue) As Boolean

Parameters

key: TKey

The key of the element to add.

value: TValue

The value of the element to add. The value can be null for reference types.

Returns

Boolean

true if the key/value pair was added to the ConcurrentDictionary<TKey,TValue> successfully; false if the key already exists.

Exceptions

ArgumentNullException

key is null.

OverflowException

The dictionary contains too many elements.

Examples

The following example shows how to call the ConcurrentDictionary<TKey,TValue>.TryAdd method:

class CD_TryXYZ

        // Demonstrates:
        //      ConcurrentDictionary<TKey, TValue>.TryAdd()
        //      ConcurrentDictionary<TKey, TValue>.TryUpdate()
        //      ConcurrentDictionary<TKey, TValue>.TryRemove()
        static void Main()
        {
            int numFailures = 0; // for bookkeeping

            // Construct an empty dictionary
            ConcurrentDictionary<int, String> cd = new ConcurrentDictionary<int, string>();

            // This should work
            if (!cd.TryAdd(1, "one"))

Remarks

This method returns false if the key already exists. Use the TryUpdate or AddOrUpdate method to update the value in case a key already exists.
