but in fairness I can think of one good thing about 2019 release: 2017 should become more stable.
no, not so much fixing the problems it has (many inherited from prev versions),
but no more introduction of new crap/bloat a lot of which really wasn't that useful bugs

Just written some code which needed converting an array to a string and back, and was like WTF.
to split a string into an array
var joined_str = String.Join(",", my_array);
cool.
To split a string into array:
var my_array = joined_str.Split(',');
Split only really wants a char, and Join only wants a string.
Why can't this two things not get along.
Maybe just me and some outof date c#.net

You can write an extension method for split that calls join to hide the nastiness, and always call split from then on.

I was just about to write the exact same message.

I had never used Join before, and after looking it up, it doesn't do the same thing as split, so my original response is crap. Join concatenates strings together, while split breaks a string up based on a delimiter character.

No, it's just that it's more complicated to split on a string, i think, but easy to join on whatever.
I wrote some methods for doing it, if you want them i'll share them.
They're also intended for splitting on word breaks

Usually splitting a string by just a char makes sense, however you should look at the method signature, it's actually not a char:
public String[] Split(params char[] separator);
(One of several array overloads)
Joining by a string makes tons of sense. For example, joining by CRLF.

You don't mention why those two don't work well together, but could that overused three letter keyword be what obscures the actual problem?

BTW, I have a persistent string parser article I wrote in 2008. It might give to a starting point for rolling your own code. Keep in mind that I wrote this when I was just starting out in .Net, so refactoring it might be a good call.

I am struggling to understand why you need to convert array to string, and then back to array?

Hahaha,

It's talking to a COBOL service.

Not sure what you mean by "only really".  It also accepts an array of char separators. But I wish it also had an overload that accepted a string that was interpreted as a set of chars. It's much easier to type.

Am I missing something? There's an overload, albeit an ugly one:
string s = "Rob and Bob and Clob";
var z = s.Split(new[] {" and "}, StringSplitOptions.None);

give it time. soon the install will be 2 TB and will cause your machine to physically explode,causing a rip in the space time continuum.

|

as soon as you install expect another several gigs of updates and downloads before you can actually use it
