Definition

Determines whether the specified string is in the StringCollection.

public:
 bool Contains(System::String ^ value);
public bool Contains (string value);
public bool Contains (string? value);
member this.Contains : string -> bool
Public Function Contains (value As String) As Boolean

Parameters

value
String

The string to locate in the StringCollection. The value can be null.

Returns

true if value is found in the StringCollection; otherwise, false.

Examples

The following code example searches the StringCollection for an element.

#using <System.dll>

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Collections;
using namespace System::Collections::Specialized;
void PrintValues( IEnumerable^ myCol );
int main()
{
   
   // Creates and initializes a new StringCollection.
   StringCollection^ myCol = gcnew StringCollection;
   array<String^>^myArr = {"RED","orange","yellow","RED","green","blue","RED","indigo","violet","RED"};
   myCol->AddRange( myArr );
   Console::WriteLine( "Initial contents of the StringCollection:" );
   PrintValues( myCol );
   
   // Checks whether the collection contains "orange" and, if so, displays its index.
   if ( myCol->Contains( "orange" ) )
      Console::WriteLine( "The collection contains \"orange\" at index {0}.", myCol->IndexOf( "orange" ) );
   else
      Console::WriteLine( "The collection does not contain \"orange\"." );
}

void PrintValues( IEnumerable^ myCol )
{
   IEnumerator^ myEnum = myCol->GetEnumerator();
   while ( myEnum->MoveNext() )
   {
      Object^ obj = safe_cast<Object^>(myEnum->Current);
      Console::WriteLine( "   {0}", obj );
   }

   Console::WriteLine();
}

Remarks

The Contains method can confirm the existence of a string before performing further operations.

This method determines equality by calling Object.Equals. String comparisons are case-sensitive.

This method performs a linear search; therefore, this method is an O(n) operation, where n is Count.

Starting with the .NET Framework 2.0, this method uses the collection's objects' Equals and CompareTo methods on item to determine whether item exists. In the earlier versions of the .NET Framework, this determination was made by using the Equals and CompareTo methods of the item parameter on the objects in the collection.
