String equals, Copy to & Copy to in VB.net
By: Issac
String Equals function is handy to check whether two specified string object values are same or not
System.String.Equals(String rudran, String rudran) As Boolean
Parameters:
String arguments
1. String rudran
2. String rudran
Returns:
Boolean : Yes/No
It return the values of the two String Objects are same
For ex :
String1 = "Adhi"
String2 = "Adhi"
String.Equals(String1,String2) returns True
String.Equals(String1.ToLower,String2) returns False
Because the String Objects values are different
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim string1 As String = "Adhirudran"
Dim string2 As String = "Adhirudran"
If String.Equals(string1, string2) Then
MsgBox("Strings are Equal() ")
Else
MsgBox("Strings are not Equal() ")
End If
End Sub
End Class
When you run this program you will get message "Strings are Equal () "
To copy a specified number of characters from a specified position in a instance to a specific position in an array of characters
System.String.CopyTo(ByVal sourceIndex As Integer, ByVal destination() As Char, ByVal destinationIndex As Integer, ByVal count As Integer)
Parameters:
Integer sourceIndex: The starting position of the source String
Char destination () : The character Array
Integer destinationIndex: Array element in the destination
Integer count: The number of characters to destination
Exceptions:
System.ArgumentNullException: If the destination is null
System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException:
Source Index, DestinationIndex or Count is a -ve value
Count is greater than the length of the substring from startIndex to the end of this instance
Count is greater than the length of the subarray from destinationIndex to the end of destination
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim string1 As String = "CopyTo() sample"
Dim chrs(7) As Char
str1.CopyTo(0, chrs, 0, 6)

Dim string1 As String
Dim string2 As String
string1 = "m-indya.com"
