How to get Synchronize access to the HybridDictionary in C#?

To get synchronize access to HybridDictionary, the code is as follows −

Example

using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Specialized;
public class Demo {
   public static void Main() {
      HybridDictionary dict1 = new HybridDictionary();
      dict1.Add("A", "Books");
      dict1.Add("B", "Electronics");
      dict1.Add("C", "Smart Wearables");
      dict1.Add("D", "Pet Supplies");
      dict1.Add("E", "Clothing");
      dict1.Add("F", "Footwear");
      Console.WriteLine("HybridDictionary1 elements...");
      foreach(DictionaryEntry d in dict1) {
         Console.WriteLine(d.Key + " " + d.Value);
      }
      Console.WriteLine("Is the HybridDictionary1 having fixed size? = "+dict1.IsFixedSize);
      Console.WriteLine("If HybridDictionary1 read-only? = "+dict1.IsReadOnly);
      Console.WriteLine("Is HybridDictionary1 synchronized = "+dict1.IsSynchronized);
      HybridDictionary dict2 = new HybridDictionary();
      dict2.Add("1", "One");
      dict2.Add("2", "Two");
      dict2.Add("3", "Three");
      dict2.Add("4", "Four");
      dict2.Add("5", "Five");
      dict2.Add("6", "Six");
      Console.WriteLine("
HybridDictionary2 elements...");
      foreach(DictionaryEntry d in dict2) {
         Console.WriteLine(d.Key + " " + d.Value);
      }
      Console.WriteLine("Is HybridDictionary1 equal to HybridDictionary2? = "+(dict1.Equals(dict2)));
      Console.WriteLine("
Synchronize access...");
      lock(dict2.SyncRoot) {
         foreach(DictionaryEntry d in dict2) {
            Console.WriteLine(d.Key + " " + d.Value);
         }
      }
   }
}

Output

This will produce the following output −

HybridDictionary1 elements...
A Books
B Electronics
C Smart Wearables
D Pet Supplies
E Clothing
F Footwear
Is the HybridDictionary1 having fixed size? = False
If HybridDictionary1 read-only? = False
Is HybridDictionary1 synchronized = False
HybridDictionary2 elements...
1 One
2 Two
3 Three
4 Four
5 Five
6 Six
Is HybridDictionary1 equal to HybridDictionary2? = False
Synchronize access...
1 One
2 Two
3 Three
4 Four
5 Five
6 Six

Example

Let us see another example −

using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Specialized;
public class Demo {
   public static void Main() {
      HybridDictionary dict = new HybridDictionary();
      dict.Add("A", "SUV");
      dict.Add("B", "MUV");
      dict.Add("C", "AUV");
      Console.WriteLine("HybridDictionary elements...");
      foreach(DictionaryEntry d in dict) {
         Console.WriteLine(d.Key + " " + d.Value);
      }
      Console.WriteLine("
Synchronize access...");
      lock(dict.SyncRoot) {
         foreach(DictionaryEntry d in dict) {
            Console.WriteLine(d.Key + " " + d.Value);
         }
      }
   }
}

Output

This will produce the following output −

HybridDictionary elements...
A SUV
B MUV
C AUV
Synchronize access...
A SUV
B MUV
C AUV
