ArgumentOutOfRangeException

Error message

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

What it means

Collection contract guard in SortedDictionary.KeyCollection.CopyTo: the index parameter is negative (or would place the copy out of range), so copying the keys into the destination array cannot proceed. The faulting input is the index argument.

Solutions

  1. Clamp or validate index >= 0 before calling CopyTo
  2. Recheck the offset calculation that produced the negative index
  3. Use index 0 when copying into a fresh array

Example fix

// before
keys.CopyTo(arr, -1);
// after
if (index >= 0) keys.CopyTo(arr, index);
Defensive patterns

Strategy: validation

Validate before calling

if (index < 0) throw new InvalidOperationException("CopyTo index must be non-negative");

Type guard

null

Try / catch

try { keys.CopyTo(arr, index); } catch (ArgumentOutOfRangeException) { keys.CopyTo(arr, 0); }

Prevention

When it happens

Trigger: Calling CopyTo with a negative index, often from a computed offset that went below zero (e.g. index -= n on a small buffer).

Common situations: Offset arithmetic bugs when filling a section of a larger array.
