StringBuilder::Append Method (Char*, Int32)
Appends an array of Unicode characters starting at a specified address to this instance.
This API is not CLS-compliant.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
public: [SecurityCriticalAttribute] [CLSCompliantAttribute(false)] StringBuilder^ Append( wchar_t* value, int valueCount )
Parameters
- value
-
Type:
System::Char*
A pointer to an array of characters.
- valueCount
-
Type:
System::Int32
The number of characters in the array.
Return Value
Type: System.Text::StringBuilder^A reference to this instance after the append operation has completed.
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentOutOfRangeException | valueCount is less than zero. -or- Enlarging the value of this instance would exceed StringBuilder::MaxCapacity. |
| NullReferenceException | value is a null pointer. |
This method appends valueCount characters starting at address value to the current instance.
The Append(Char*, Int32) method modifies the existing instance of this class; it does not return a new class instance. Because of this, you can call a method or property on the existing reference and you do not have to assign the return value to a StringBuilder object.
The capacity of this instance is adjusted as needed.
Notes to Callers:
In the.NET Framework 4 and the .NET Framework 4.5, when you instantiate the StringBuilder object by calling the StringBuilder(Int32, Int32) constructor, both the length and the capacity of the StringBuilder instance can grow beyond the value of its MaxCapacity property. This can occur particularly when you call the Append and AppendFormat methods to append small strings.
