I have an IList/Collection that contains items in a ListView.
If i click on an item in the ListView, i can capture the index
(lv.SelectedIte ms[0].Index) and reference the correct item in the
associated IList/Collection .
Once I've sorted the ListView, obviously the indices do not match up
anymore. So, should i sort the IList/Collection when I sort the
ListView (which seems overkill to me) or some how sort the indices
associated with the ListView?
I'm buffaloed at this point.
Any input is appreciated. Thanks guys (and gals).

You should have a separate Dictionary which is keyed by the ListViewItem
to the object that you are visualizing in the list view. Then, you can
easily retrieve the item that the ListViewItem is referencing.
Hope this helps.

A different approach; I quite like observer-based patterns, so I use a
data-bound ListView subclass, and bind to a list that implements
IBindingList (SupportsSortin g/SortProperty/SortDirection) and
IBindingListVie w (SupportsAdvanc edSorting/ApplySort). I then ask the
list to sort itself, and let the UI manage itself. This can be quite a
handful from scratch, but from what I have seen so far the .Net 3.0
classes may offer some improved list classes (ObservableColl ection etc
- haven't checked to see if it supports sorting though), and WPF
offers more data-bound UI options for displaying data.
Finally, if you are using the Details view (of ListView), consider
switching to DataGridView, as again this is data-bound without needing
to code anything.

Additional: have checked, and unless I missed it, ObservableColle ction
does not appear to support sorting. Disappointing.

thanks for the input guys...what would i do without USENET input?
i ended up hashing it and i have it working as expected.

Hi Everyone,
Does .NET offer any collection class which will give me objects last
*accessed* such that I may build a least-recently-used cache that
kills off objects that haven't been used for awhile?
Or is there any other way to implement this kind of a cache /
collection where one can do this kind of cleanup based on
least-recently-used objects?

Hello,
I am thinking of a general solution to the specific issue and I hope
someone has some more experience on that.
Up to now I use the ListView as the primary control for collections of
items. Unfortunately, the ListView behaves sluggishly with large amounts of
data. That's why I think of using DataGrid instead.
The DataGrid in my application should be databinded to a memory

I'm having a index problem with ListView SubItems. If I add multiple
columns to the listview and then add items with associated subitems,
the ListView displays fine. Then if I delete a column via
ListView.Columns.RemoveAt() then the ListView still displays fine.
However, if I grab a subitem value via
listView.Items.SubItems.Text
Then I get the Text of the wrong column.

Two columns contain integer values, while the remaining contain string

Descending formats.

I am trying to create a base class that contains a collection that MUST be
able to be referenced by both a string key and a positional index. This

In 2.0, is there a collection that would support this?
The List<> works to keep the order but doesn't allow me to reference the
items by key like the Dictionary<> collection does, but I don't think the
Dictionary collection...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
