Full name Microsoft.VisualBasic.Language.C.CString Assembly Microsoft.VisualBasic.Runtime Members 7

This class provides the ability to simulate various classic C string functions which don't have exact equivalents in the .NET Framework.

01 Syntax

Microsoft.VisualBasic.Language.C.CString

02 Methods

Name	Overloads	Summary
Decode	1	decode of the meta char inside the given format string
ChangeCharacter	1	This method allows replacing a single character in a string, to help convert C++ code where a single character in a character array is replaced.
IsXDigit	1	This method simulates the classic C string function 'isxdigit' (and 'iswxdigit').
StrChr	1	This method simulates the classic C string function 'strchr' (and 'wcschr').
StrRChr	1	This method simulates the classic C string function 'strrchr' (and 'wcsrchr').
StrStr	1	This method simulates the classic C string function 'strstr' (and 'wcsstr').
StrTok	1	This method simulates the classic C string function 'strtok' (and 'wcstok').

method Decode #

Decode(String, Boolean)

decode of the meta char inside the given format string

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
`s`	`String`	-

method ChangeCharacter #

ChangeCharacter(String, Int32, Char)

This method allows replacing a single character in a string, to help convert C++ code where a single character in a character array is replaced.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
`sourcestring`	`String`	-
`charindex`	`Int32`	-
`changechar`	`Char`	-

method IsXDigit #

IsXDigit(Char)

This method simulates the classic C string function 'isxdigit' (and 'iswxdigit').

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
`character`	`Char`	-

method StrChr #

StrChr(String, Char)

This method simulates the classic C string function 'strchr' (and 'wcschr').

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
`stringtosearch`	`String`	-
`chartofind`	`Char`	-

method StrRChr #

StrRChr(String, Char)

This method simulates the classic C string function 'strrchr' (and 'wcsrchr').

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
`stringtosearch`	`String`	-
`chartofind`	`Char`	-

method StrStr #

StrStr(String, String)

This method simulates the classic C string function 'strstr' (and 'wcsstr').

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
`stringtosearch`	`String`	-
`stringtofind`	`String`	-

method StrTok #

StrTok(String, String)

This method simulates the classic C string function 'strtok' (and 'wcstok'). Note that the .NET string 'Split' method cannot be used to simulate 'strtok' since it doesn't allow changing the delimiters between each token retrieval.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
`stringtotokenize`	`String`	-
`delimiters`	`String`	-
