我可以从该字典的枚举循环中删除 ConcurrentDictionary 中的项目吗？

例如：

ConcurrentDictionary<string,Payload> itemCache = GetItems();

foreach(KeyValuePair<string,Payload> kvPair in itemCache)
{
    if(TestItemExpiry(kvPair.Value))
    {   // Remove expired item.
        itemCache.TryRemove(kvPair.Key, out Payload removedItem);
    }
}

显然，对于普通的 Dictionary 这将引发异常，因为删除项目会在枚举生命周期内更改字典的内部状态。据我了解，ConcurrentDictionary 的情况并非如此，因为提供的 IEnumerable 处理内部状态更改。我这样理解对吗？有更好的模式可以使用吗？

对我来说很奇怪的是，你现在收到了两个似乎证实你不能这样做的答案。我刚刚自己测试了它，它工作得很好，没有抛出任何异常。

下面是我用来测试行为的代码，后面是输出的摘录（大约是当我按“C”清除字典中的字典时）foreach and S之后立即停止后台线程）。请注意，我对此施加了相当大的压力ConcurrentDictionary：16 个线程计时器，每个计时器大约每 15 毫秒尝试添加一个项目。

在我看来，这个类非常强大，如果您在多线程场景中工作，那么值得您关注。

另请注意，根据控制台输出，它看起来像foreach循环锁定了试图向字典添加值的其他线程。 （我可能是错的，但否则我猜你会在“COUNT”行之间看到一堆“添加条目”行。）
