CompareInfo.IsSuffix Method (String, String)
Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.
Determines whether the specified source string ends with the specified suffix.
Namespace: System.Globalization
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public Overridable Function IsSuffix ( _
source As String, _
suffix As String _
) As Boolean
public virtual bool IsSuffix(
string source,
string suffix
)
Parameters
- source
Type: System.String
The string to search in.
- suffix
Type: System.String
The string to compare with the end of source.
Return Value
Type: System.Boolean
true if the length of suffix is less than or equal to the length of source and source ends with suffix; otherwise, false.
Exceptions
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentNullException | source is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic). -or- suffix is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic). |
Remarks
Every string starts and ends with an empty substring (""); therefore, if suffix is an empty string, this method returns true.
Examples
The following example determines whether a string is the prefix or suffix of another string.
Imports System.Globalization
Public Class Example
Public Shared Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock)
' Defines the strings to compare.
Dim myStr1 As [String] = "calle"
Dim myStr2 As [String] = "llegar"
Dim myXfix As [String] = "lle"
' Uses the CompareInfo property of the InvariantCulture.
Dim myComp As CompareInfo = CultureInfo.InvariantCulture.CompareInfo
' Determines whether myXfix is a prefix of "calle" and "llegar".
outputBlock.Text += String.Format("IsPrefix( {0}, {1} ) : {2}", myStr1, myXfix, myComp.IsPrefix(myStr1, myXfix)) & vbCrLf
outputBlock.Text += String.Format("IsPrefix( {0}, {1} ) : {2}", myStr2, myXfix, myComp.IsPrefix(myStr2, myXfix)) & vbCrLf
' Determines whether myXfix is a suffix of "calle" and "llegar".
