StringBuilder.Remove(Int32, Int32) Method

Definition

Removes the specified range of characters from this instance.

public:
 System::Text::StringBuilder ^ Remove(int startIndex, int length);
public System.Text.StringBuilder Remove (int startIndex, int length);
member this.Remove : int * int -> System.Text.StringBuilder
Public Function Remove (startIndex As Integer, length As Integer) As StringBuilder

Parameters

startIndex
Int32

The zero-based position in this instance where removal begins.

length
Int32

The number of characters to remove.

Returns

A reference to this instance after the excise operation has completed.

Exceptions

If startIndex or length is less than zero, or startIndex + length is greater than the length of this instance.

Examples

The following example demonstrates the Remove method.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Text;
int main()
{
   String^ rule1 = "0----+----1----+----2----+----3----+----4---";
   String^ rule2 = "01234567890123456789012345678901234567890123";
   String^ str = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.";
   StringBuilder^ sb = gcnew StringBuilder( str );
   Console::WriteLine();
   Console::WriteLine( "StringBuilder.Remove method" );
   Console::WriteLine();
   Console::WriteLine( "Original value:" );
   Console::WriteLine( rule1 );
   Console::WriteLine( rule2 );
   Console::WriteLine( "{0}", sb );
   Console::WriteLine();
   sb->Remove( 10, 6 ); // Remove "brown "
   Console::WriteLine( "New value:" );
   Console::WriteLine( rule1 );
   Console::WriteLine( rule2 );
   Console::WriteLine( "{0}", sb );
}

Remarks

The current method removes the specified range of characters from the current instance. The characters at (startIndex + length) are moved to startIndex, and the string value of the current instance is shortened by length. The capacity of the current instance is unaffected.

Note

The Remove method modifies the value of the current StringBuilder instance and returns that instance. It does not create and return a new StringBuilder object.
