System.Array.SetValue Method

Sets a value to the element at the specified position in the three-dimensional Array. The indexes are specified as 32-bit integers.

Syntax

public void SetValue (object value, int index1, int index2, int index3)

Parameters

value
The new value for the specified element.
index1
A 32-bit integer that represents the first-dimension index of the Array element to set.
index2
A 32-bit integer that represents the second-dimension index of the Array element to set.
index3
A 32-bit integer that represents the third-dimension index of the Array element to set.

Exceptions

TypeReason
ArgumentExceptionThe current instance does not have exactly three dimensions.
IndexOutOfRangeExceptionAt least one of index1, index2, or index3 is outside the range of valid indices for the corresponding dimension of the current instance.
InvalidCastException value is not assignment-compatible with the element type of the current instance.

Remarks

The Array.GetLowerBound(int) and Array.GetUpperBound(int) methods can determine whether any of the indexes is out of bounds.

This method is an O(1) operation.

Note:

If erload:System.Array.SetValue is used to assign null to an element of an array of value types, all fields of the element are initialized to zero. The value of the element is not a null reference, and cannot be found by searching for a null reference.
