parallel.foreach with custom collection
- by SchwartzE
I am extending the System.Net.Mail.MailAddress class to include an ID field, so I created a new custom MailAddress class that inherited from the existing class and a new custom MailAddressCollection class. I then overrode the existing System.Net.Mail.MailMessage.To to use my new collection. I would like to process the recipients in parallel, but I can't get the syntax right. This is the syntax I am using.
Parallel.ForEach(EmailMessage.To, (MailAddress address) =>
{
emailService.InsertRecipient(emailId, address.DisplayName, address.Address, " ");
});
I get the following errors:
The best overloaded method match for 'System.Threading.Tasks.Parallel.ForEach(System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable, System.Action)' has some invalid arguments
Argument 1: cannot convert from 'EmailService.MailAddressCollection' to 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable'
What syntax do I need to use custom collections?
