SortKey.ToString Method

Definition

Returns a string that represents the current SortKey object.

public:
 override System::String ^ ToString();
public override string ToString ();
override this.ToString : unit -> string
Public Overrides Function ToString () As String

Returns

A string that represents the current SortKey object.

Examples

The following code example displays an original string, the strings yielded by the ToString method for case-sensitive and case-insensitive sort keys, and the key data for case-sensitive and case-insensitive sort keys.

// This code example demonstrates the
// GetSortKey() and ToString() methods, and the
// OriginalString and KeyData properties of the
// System.Globalization.SortKey class.

class Sample

    CompareInfo cmpi = null;
    SortKey sk1 = null;
    SortKey sk2 = null;

    string ignoreCase = "Ignore case";
    string useCase    = "Use case   ";

// Get a CompareInfo object for the English-Great Britain culture.
    cmpi = CompareInfo.GetCompareInfo("en-GB");

// Get a sort key that ignores case for the specified string.
    sk1 = cmpi.GetSortKey(s, CompareOptions.IgnoreCase);
// Get a sort key with no compare option for the specified string.
    sk2 = cmpi.GetSortKey(s);

// Display the original string.
    Console.WriteLine("Original string: \"{0}\"", sk1.OriginalString);
    Console.WriteLine();

// Display the string equivalent of the two sort keys.
    Console.WriteLine("CompareInfo (culture) name: {0}", cmpi.Name);
    Console.WriteLine("ToString - {0}: \"{1}\"", ignoreCase, sk1.ToString());
    Console.WriteLine("ToString - {0}: \"{1}\"", useCase, sk2.ToString());
    Console.WriteLine();

// Display the key data of the two sort keys.

Remarks

The return value is the concatenation of the string "SortKey - ", the culture identifier and compare options of the current SortKey object, and the value of the OriginalString property.

This method overrides Object.ToString.
