String.LastIndexOf Method (String, Int32, Int32)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Updated: October 2010

Reports the zero-based index position of the last occurrence of a specified string within this instance. The search starts at a specified character position and examines a specified number of character positions.

Namespace:  System
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function LastIndexOf ( _
    value As String, _
    startIndex As Integer, _
    count As Integer _
) As Integer
public int LastIndexOf(
    string value,
    int startIndex,
    int count
)

Parameters

  • startIndex
    Type: System.Int32
    The search starting position.
  • count
    Type: System.Int32
    The number of character positions to examine.

Return Value

Type: System.Int32
The zero-based index position of value if that string is found, or -1 if it is not found or if the current instance equals String.Empty. If value is String.Empty, the return value is startIndex.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException

value is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

count is negative.

-or-

The current instance does not equal String.Empty, and startIndex is negative.

-or-

The current instance does not equal String.Empty, and startIndex is greater than the length of this instance.

-or-

The current instance does not equal String.Empty, and startIndex - count + 1 specifies a position that is not within this instance.

Remarks

Index numbering starts from zero. That is, the first character in the string is at index zero and the last is at Length - 1.

The search begins at the startIndex character position of this instance and proceeds backward toward the beginning until either value is found or count character positions have been examined. For example, if startIndex is Length - 1, the method searches backward count characters from the last character in the string.

This method performs a word (case-sensitive and culture-sensitive) search using the current culture. The search begins at the startIndex character position of this instance and proceeds backward until either value is found or count character positions have been examined.

Notes to Callers

Starting in Silverlight 4, the behavior of the String.LastIndexOf(String, Int32, Int32) method has changed. In Silverlight 4, it performs a case-sensitive and culture-sensitive comparison using the current culture to find the last occurrence of value. This conforms to the behavior of the String.LastIndexOf(String, Int32, Int32) method in the full .NET Framework. In Silverlight 2 and Silverlight 3, String.LastIndexOf(String, Int32, Int32) performs an ordinal comparison. If the common language runtime determines that a Silverlight-based application was compiled against Silverlight 2 or Silverlight 2, it performs an ordinal comparison; otherwise, it performs a culture-sensitive comparison.

Examples

The following code example finds the index of all occurrences of a string in substring, working from the end of the substring to the start of the substring.
