将字典<TKey, List<TValue>> 转换为 ReadOnlyDictionary<TKey, ReadOnlyCollection<TValue>>

Converting Dictionary<TKey, List<TValue>> to ReadOnlyDictionary<TKey, ReadOnlyCollection<TValue>>

我有一个字典如下:

public enum Role { Role1, Role2, Role3, }
public enum Action { Action1, Action2, Action3, }

var dictionary = new Dictionary<Role, List<Action>>();

dictionary.Add(RoleType.Role1, new Action [] { Action.Action1, Action.Action2 }.ToList());

现在我希望能够构造一个值类型也是只读的只读字典如下:

var readOnlyDictionary = new ReadOnlyDictionary<Role, ReadOnlyCollection<Action>>(dictionary);

由于 TValue 类型的差异,最后一行显然会导致编译时错误。

使用 List<TValue> 也是必要的,因为原始词典是从外部源以编程方式填充的。

是否有执行此转换的简单方法?

一种可能性(对于大型集合可能不是最佳选择)是构造一个所需类型的新 Dictionary 对象(使用 Enumerable.ToDictionary overload) and use the List.AsReadOnly() extension 像这样:

var readOnlyDictionary = 
    new ReadOnlyDictionary<Role, ReadOnlyCollection<Action>>
        (dictionary.ToDictionary(k => k.Key, v => v.Value.AsReadOnly()));

将字典转换为 ReadOnlyDictionary 就像将常规字典作为参数传递给 ReadOnlyDictionary 的构造函数一样简单:

var myDict = new Dictionary<K, V>();

var myReadOnlyDict = new ReadOnlyDictionary<K, V>(myDictionary);

将近 5 年后,这里有一个简单的解决方案,它采用字典,正确处理值类型的协方差。

        IEnumerator IEnumerable.GetEnumerator() => GetEnumerator();
