Parameters

  • fileNames
    Type: array<System.String[]

    The file names to append. If the array is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), then this method has no effect.

  • delimiter
    Type: System.String

    The delimiter to put between file names in the command line.

Remarks

This method appends the command line with file names, and surrounds the file names with quotation marks as necessary. The file names are separated by the specified delimiter.

If the command line is not empty, then this method also appends the command line with a space, before the file names.

Examples

AppendFileNamesIfNotNull(new string[] {"Alpha.cs", "Beta.cs"}, ",") yields Alpha.cs,Beta.cs.
