Console.WriteLine Method (String)
.NET Framework (current version)
Writes the specified string value, followed by the current line terminator, to the standard output stream.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
<HostProtectionAttribute(SecurityAction.LinkDemand, UI := True)> Public Shared Sub WriteLine ( value As String )
Parameters
- value
-
Type:
System.String
The value to write.
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| IOException | An I/O error occurred. |
If value is null, only the line terminator is written to the standard output stream.
For more information about the line terminator, see the Remarks section of the WriteLine() method.
The example changes the line terminator from its default value of "\r\n" or vbCrLf to "\r\n\r\n" or vbCrLf + vbCrLf. It then calls the WriteLine() and WriteLine(String) methods to display output to the console.
Module Example Public Sub Main() Dim lines() As String = { "This is the first line.", _ "This is the second line." } ' Output the lines using the default newline sequence. Console.WriteLine("With the default new line characters:") Console.WriteLine() For Each line As String In lines Console.WriteLine(line) Next Console.WriteLine() ' Redefine the newline characters to double space. Console.Out.NewLine = vbCrLf + vbCrLf ' Output the lines using the new newline sequence. Console.WriteLine("With redefined new line characters:") Console.WriteLine() For Each line As String In lines Console.WriteLine(line) Next End Sub End Module ' The example displays the following output: ' With the default new line characters: ' ' This is the first line. ' This is the second line. ' ' With redefined new line characters: ' ' ' ' This is the first line. ' ' This is the second line.
