.NET Framework 3.0

public String Substring ( int startIndex, int length )
public function Substring ( startIndex : int, length : int ) : String
Not applicable.
Parameters
- startIndex
The zero-based starting character position of a substring in this instance.
- length
The number of characters in the substring.
Return Value
A String equivalent to the substring of length length that begins at startIndex in this instance, or Empty if startIndex is equal to the length of this instance and length is zero.The following code example uses the Substring method in three cases to isolate substrings within a string. In two cases the substrings are used in comparisons, and in the third case an exception is thrown because invalid parameters are specified.
String^ myString = "abc"; bool test1 = String::Compare( myString->Substring( 2, 1 ), "c" ) == 0; // This is true. myString->Substring( 3, 1 ); // This throws ArgumentOutOfRangeException. bool test2 = String::Compare( myString->Substring( 3, 0 ), String::Empty ) == 0; // This is true.
String myString = "abc"; // This is true. boolean test1 = String.Compare(myString.Substring(2, 1), "c") == 0; myString.Substring(3, 1); // This throws ArgumentOutOfRangeException. // This is true. boolean test2 = String.Compare(myString.Substring(3, 0), " ") == 0;
var myString : String = "abc"; var test1 : boolean = String.Compare(myString.Substring(2, 1), "c") == 0; // This is true. myString.Substring(3, 1); // This throws ArgumentOutOfRangeException. var test2 : boolean = String.Compare(myString.Substring(3, 0), String.Empty) == 0; // This is true.
