AtomicDictionaryMBS.Clone as Dictionary

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
property Atomic MBS Util Plugin 26.3 ✅ Yes ✅ Yes ✅ Yes ✅ Yes All
Returns a copy of the contents of the Dictionary allowing it to be manipulated independently of the original.
Example 
Var a As New AtomicDictionaryMBS
a.Value(1) = 2
a.Value(2) = 3
Var d As Dictionary = a.Clone
Break // inspect clone in debugger

Because any Dictionary items that are objects are really just references to the object, while the references themselves are duplicated, the objects they reference are not. Changing an object in one will change it in the other.

Great to view entries in Xojo debugger.
