StringBuilder.AppendLine Method

Definition

Namespace:

System.Text

Assembly:

System.Runtime.dll

Appends the default line terminator, or a copy of a specified string and the default line terminator, to the end of this instance.

Overloads

AppendLine()	Appends the default line terminator to the end of the current StringBuilder object.
AppendLine(String)	Appends a copy of the specified string followed by the default line terminator to the end of the current StringBuilder object.
AppendLine(StringBuilder+AppendInterpolatedStringHandler)	Appends the specified interpolated string followed by the default line terminator to the end of the current StringBuilder object.
AppendLine(IFormatProvider, StringBuilder+AppendInterpolatedStringHandler)	Appends the specified interpolated string using the specified format, followed by the default line terminator, to the end of the current StringBuilder object.

AppendLine()

Source:

StringBuilder.cs

Appends the default line terminator to the end of the current StringBuilder object.

public:
 System::Text::StringBuilder ^ AppendLine();

public System.Text.StringBuilder AppendLine ();

member this.AppendLine : unit -> System.Text.StringBuilder

Public Function AppendLine () As StringBuilder

Returns

StringBuilder

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

Exceptions

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

Enlarging the value of this instance would exceed MaxCapacity.

Examples

The following example demonstrates the AppendLine method.

// This example demonstrates the StringBuilder.AppendLine()
// method.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Text;

int main()
{
    StringBuilder^ sb = gcnew StringBuilder;
    String^ line = L"A line of text.";
    int number = 123;

    // Append two lines of text.
    sb->AppendLine( L"The first line of text." );
    sb->AppendLine( line );

    // Append a new line, an empty string, and a null cast as a string.
    sb->AppendLine();
    sb->AppendLine( L"" );
    sb->AppendLine( L"" );

    // Append the non-string value, 123, and two new lines.
    sb->Append( number )->AppendLine()->AppendLine();

    // Append two lines of text.
    sb->AppendLine( line );
    sb->AppendLine( L"The last line of text." );

    // Convert the value of the StringBuilder to a string and display the string.
    Console::WriteLine( sb );

    return 0;
}

Remarks

The default line terminator is the current value of the Environment.NewLine property.

The capacity of this instance is adjusted as needed.

Notes to Callers

In .NET Core and in the .NET Framework 4.0 and later versions, when you instantiate the StringBuilder object by calling the StringBuilder(Int32, Int32) constructor, both the length and the capacity of the StringBuilder instance can grow beyond the value of its MaxCapacity property. This can occur particularly when you call the Append(String) and AppendFormat(String, Object) methods to append small strings.
