The following example compares the string "llama" using the "en-US" and "es-ES" cultures, and the "en-US" and "es-ES" traditional cultures.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Globalization;
int main()
{
   
   // Creates a SortKey using the en-US culture.
   CultureInfo^ MyCI = gcnew CultureInfo( "en-US",false );
   CompareInfo^ myComp_enUS = MyCI->CompareInfo;
   SortKey^ mySK1 = myComp_enUS->GetSortKey( "llama" );
   
   // Creates a SortKey using the es-ES culture with international sort.
   MyCI = gcnew CultureInfo( "es-ES",false );
   CompareInfo^ myComp_esES = MyCI->CompareInfo;
   SortKey^ mySK2 = myComp_esES->GetSortKey( "llama" );
   
   // Creates a SortKey using the es-ES culture with traditional sort.
   MyCI = gcnew CultureInfo( 0x040A,false );
   CompareInfo^ myComp_es = MyCI->CompareInfo;

The following example shows how you can use the SortKey class to improve performance in an application that relies extensively on sorting and searching a large array. The example creates an unordered array of names, which in this case has 13 elements. It then stores the sort key of each name in a parallel array, which it passes to the Sort(Array, Array) method. The result is a sorted array. The example then searches the array for three strings. For each search string, it calls the GetSortKey(String, CompareOptions) method to retrieve the string's sort key, and then calls the Array.FindIndex method to retrieve the index of that sort key in the array of sort keys. Because the name and sort key arrays are parallel, the returned index is also the index of the name in the names array.

using System.Globalization;

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      // Define names.
      String[] names= { "Adam", "Ignatius", "Batholomew", "Gregory",
                        "Clement", "Frances", "Harold", "Dalmatius",
                        "Edgar", "John", "Benedict", "Paul", "George" };
      SortKey[] sortKeys = new SortKey[names.Length];
      CompareInfo ci = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.CompareInfo;

      for (int ctr = 0; ctr < names.Length; ctr++)
         sortKeys[ctr] = ci.GetSortKey(names[ctr], CompareOptions.IgnoreCase);

      // Sort array based on value of sort keys.
      Array.Sort(names, sortKeys);

      Console.WriteLine("Sorted array: ");
      foreach (var name in names)
         Console.WriteLine(name);

      Console.WriteLine();

      String[] namesToFind = { "Paul", "PAUL", "Wilberforce" };
