member this.Append : System.Text.StringBuilder -> System.Text.StringBuilder
Public Function Append (value As StringBuilder) As StringBuilder

Parameters

value
StringBuilder

The string builder to append.

Returns

Applies to

Append(StringBuilder+AppendInterpolatedStringHandler)

Source:
StringBuilder.cs
Source:
StringBuilder.cs
Source:
StringBuilder.cs

Appends the specified interpolated string to this instance.

public:
 System::Text::StringBuilder ^ Append(System::Text::StringBuilder::AppendInterpolatedStringHandler % handler);

Applies to

Append(UInt16)

Source:
StringBuilder.cs
Source:
StringBuilder.cs
Source:
StringBuilder.cs

Important

This API is not CLS-compliant.

Appends the string representation of a specified 16-bit unsigned integer to this instance.

public:
 System::Text::StringBuilder ^ Append(System::UInt16 value);
[System.CLSCompliant(false)]
public System.Text.StringBuilder Append (ushort value);
[<System.CLSCompliant(false)>]
member this.Append : uint16 -> System.Text.StringBuilder
Public Function Append (value As UShort) As StringBuilder

Parameters

value
UInt16

The value to append.

Returns

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

Attributes

Exceptions

Enlarging the value of this instance would exceed MaxCapacity.

Remarks

The Append(UInt16) method modifies the existing instance of this class; it does not return a new class instance. Because of this, you can call a method or property on the existing reference and you do not have to assign the return value to a StringBuilder object, as the following example illustrates.

System.Text.StringBuilder sb = new 
            System.Text.StringBuilder("The range of a 16-bit unsigned integer: ");
sb.Append(UInt16.MinValue).Append(" to ").Append(UInt16.MaxValue);
Console.WriteLine(sb);
// The example displays the following output:
//       The range of a 16-bit unsigned integer: 0 to 65535
let sb = StringBuilder "The range of a 16-bit unsigned integer: "
sb.Append(UInt16.MinValue).Append(" to ").Append UInt16.MaxValue |> ignore
printfn $"{sb}"
// The example displays the following output:
//       The range of a 16-bit unsigned integer: 0 to 65535
Dim sb As New System.Text.StringBuilder("The range of a 16-bit unsigned integer: ")
sb.Append(UInt16.MinValue).Append(" to ").Append(UInt16.MaxValue)
Console.WriteLine(sb)
' The example displays the following output:
'       The range of a 16-bit unsigned integer: 0 to 65535

The Append(UInt16) method calls the UInt16.ToString(IFormatProvider) method to get the string representation of value. To control the formatting of value, call the AppendFormat method.

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.

UInt64

The value to append.

Returns

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

Attributes

Exceptions

Enlarging the value of this instance would exceed MaxCapacity.

Remarks

The Append(UInt64) method modifies the existing instance of this class; it does not return a new class instance. Because of this, you can call a method or property on the existing reference and you do not have to assign the return value to a StringBuilder object, as the following example illustrates.

System.Text.StringBuilder sb = new 
            System.Text.StringBuilder("The range of a 64-bit unsigned integer: ");
sb.Append(UInt64.MinValue).Append(" to ").Append(UInt64.MaxValue);
Console.WriteLine(sb);
// The example displays the following output:
//       The range of a 64-bit unsigned integer: 0 to 18446744073709551615
let sb = StringBuilder "The range of a 64-bit unsigned integer: "
sb.Append(UInt64.MinValue).Append(" to ").Append UInt64.MaxValue |> ignore
printfn $"{sb}"
// The example displays the following output:
//       The range of a 64-bit unsigned integer: 0 to 18446744073709551615
Dim sb As New System.Text.StringBuilder("The range of a 64-bit unsigned integer: ")
sb.Append(UInt64.MinValue).Append(" to ").Append(UInt64.MaxValue)
Console.WriteLine(sb)
' The example displays the following output:
'       The range of a 64-bit unsigned integer: 0 to 18446744073709551615

The Append(UInt64) method calls the UInt64.ToString(IFormatProvider) method to get the string representation of value for the current culture. To control the formatting of value, call the AppendFormat method.

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.

Because of this, you can call a method or property on the existing reference and you do not have to assign the return value to a StringBuilder object, as the following example illustrates. It defines a Dog class, creates a Dog object, and makes three calls to the Append method to create a string that contains the dog's name and breed.

using System;

public class Dog
{
   private string dogBreed;
   private string dogName;
   
   public Dog(string name, string breed)
   {
      this.dogName = name;
      this.dogBreed = breed;
   }
   
   public string Breed {
      get { return this.dogBreed; }
   }
   
   public string Name {
      get { return this.dogName; }
   }
   
   public override string ToString()
   {
      return this.dogName;
   }
}

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      Dog dog1 = new Dog("Yiska", "Alaskan Malamute");
      System.Text.StringBuilder sb = new System.Text.StringBuilder();     
      sb.Append(dog1).Append(", Breed: ").Append(dog1.Breed);  
      Console.WriteLine(sb);
   }
}
// The example displays the following output:
//        Yiska, Breed: Alaskan Malamute
open System.Text

type Dog(name: string, breed: string) =
    member _.Name = name
    member _.Breed = breed
    override _.ToString() = name

let dog1 = Dog("Yiska", "Alaskan Malamute")
let sb = StringBuilder()
sb.Append(dog1).Append(", Breed: ").Append dog1.Breed |> printfn "%O"

// The example displays the following output:
//        Yiska, Breed: Alaskan Malamute
Public Class Dog
   Private dogBreed As String
   Private dogName As String
   
   Public Sub New(name As String, breed As String)
      Me.dogName = name
      Me.dogBreed = breed
   End Sub
   
   Public ReadOnly Property Breed As String
      Get
         Return Me.dogBreed
      End Get
   End Property
   
   Public ReadOnly Property Name As String
      Get
         Return Me.dogName
      End Get
   End Property
   
   Public Overrides Function ToString() As String
      Return Me.dogName
   End Function
End Class
   
Module Example
   Public Sub Main()
      Dim dog1 As New Dog("Yiska", "Alaskan Malamute")
      Dim sb As New System.Text.StringBuilder()     
      sb.Append(dog1).Append(", Breed: ").Append(dog1.Breed)  
      Console.WriteLine(sb)
   End Sub
End Module
' The example displays the following output:
'       Yiska, Breed: Alaskan Malamute

The Append(Object) method calls the Object.ToString method to get the string representation of value. If value is null, no changes are made to the StringBuilder object.

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.
