Is there a string.Contains alternative in .netmf.  I want to check if a string contains a certain substring

 

Like

 

string abc = 1234

 

if (abc.Contains("1234"))

{

do stuff

}

Contains isn't available, but the next best thing is IndexOf

Indeed, if IndexOf returns -1, the haystack doesn't include the needle.

You can always extend the String class (.netmf 4.2 makes this much easier)

 

public static bool Contains(this String _src, char _search){	for (int i = _src.Length-1; i >= 0; --i)	{		if (_src.IndexOf(_search) >= 0) { return true; }	}	return false;}
