Examples

Shows how to work with a collection of fields.

public void FieldCollection()
{
    Document doc = new Document();

    builder.InsertField(" DATE \\@ \"dddd, d MMMM yyyy\" ");
    builder.InsertField(" TIME ");
    builder.InsertField(" REVNUM ");
    builder.InsertField(" AUTHOR  \"John Doe\" ");
    builder.InsertField(" SUBJECT \"My Subject\" ");
    builder.InsertField(" QUOTE \"Hello world!\" ");
    doc.UpdateFields();

    FieldCollection fields = doc.Range.Fields;

    Assert.AreEqual(6, fields.Count);

    // Iterate over the field collection, and print contents and type
    // of every field using a custom visitor implementation.
    FieldVisitor fieldVisitor = new FieldVisitor();

    using (IEnumerator<Field> fieldEnumerator = fields.GetEnumerator())
    {
        while (fieldEnumerator.MoveNext())
