Handy Collections

• Generic key/value pair collection that automatically sorts based on the key:
  SortedList<TKey,TValue>
• Same as above but without the automatic sorting and better performance with large number of items:
  Dictionary<TKey,TValue>

Declare either of them it as follows:

        public SortedList<int, Antenna> antennas;

To iterate through it:

        for each (KeyValuePair<int, Antenna^> kvp in rigging->antennas)

        {

            Antenna^ antenna = kvp.Value;

            CString antennaId;

            antennaId.Format(_T("%d"), kvp.Key);

            (...)

        }

• I'm using key/value pair collections because I want to be able to retrieve an element given its key. But it is possible to perform much more complex retrievals in a very elegant way. Anything that implements IEnumerable can be searched.
