TimephasedDataCollection.CopyTo

TimephasedDataCollection.CopyTo method

Copies the elements of the TimephasedDataCollection to an Array, starting at a particular Array index.

public void CopyTo(TimephasedData[] array, int arrayIndex)
ParameterTypeDescription
arrayTimephasedData[]The one-dimensional Array that is the destination of the elements copied from TimephasedDataCollection. The Array must have zero-based indexing.
arrayIndexInt32The zero-based index in array at which copying begins.

Exceptions

exceptioncondition
ArgumentNullExceptionarray is null.
ArgumentOutOfRangeExceptionarrayIndex is less than 0.
ArgumentExceptionThe number of elements in the source TimephasedDataCollection is greater than the available space from arrayIndex to the end of the destination array.
