Como: resultados de grupo por chaves contíguos (guia de programação do C#)

O exemplo a seguir mostra como agrupar elementos em blocos que representam as subseqüências de chaves contíguas.Por exemplo, suponha que você recebe a seguinte seqüência de pares chave-valor:

Os seguintes grupos serão criados nesta ordem:

1. Acreditamos que

2. LINQ

3. é

4. realmente

5. legal!

A solução é implementada como um método de extensão que é thread-safe e que retorna os seus resultados de uma maneira de fluxo contínuo.Em outras palavras, ele produz seus grupos de medida que percorre a seqüência de origem.Ao contrário do group ou orderby operadores, ele pode começar retornando grupos para o chamador antes de todas a seqüência foi lido.

Segurança do thread é realizada pela cópia de cada grupo ou bloco como a seqüência de origem é iterada, conforme explicado nos comentários de código fonte.Se a seqüência de origem tiver uma seqüência grande de itens adjacentes, o common language runtime pode lançar uma OutOfMemoryException.

O exemplo a seguir mostra o método de extensão e o código do cliente que o utiliza.
