Method SelectManyRecursive

SelectManyRecursive<T>(IEnumerable<T>, Func<T, IEnumerable<T>>, Boolean)

Selects the closure of a graph. This is typically used to select all descendants of a tree node. This method returns distinct nodes only.

Declaration

public static IReadOnlyCollection<T> SelectManyRecursive<T>(this IEnumerable<T> collection, Func<T, IEnumerable<T>> getItems, bool deduplicate = false)
where T : class, ICompilationElement

Parameters

IEnumerable<T>	collection	The initial collection of items.
Func<T, IEnumerable<T>>	getItems	A function that returns the set of all nodes connected to a given node.
Boolean	deduplicate	`true` if duplicates should be removed from the result. When `false`, duplicates throw in Debug build, and are not checked (causing infinite loops) in Release build.
