Refactor Code

Convert String Array to Separator String
by azamsharp on 7/24/2008 9:16:29 AM
Here is a small piece of code that converts a string array to a separated string. The separator can be a comma, space etc.
// create a string out of an array
private static string GetSeparatedStringFromArray(string[] source, string separator)
{
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

foreach (string str in source)
{
sb.Append(str);
sb.Append(separator);
}

return sb.ToString().TrimEnd(separator);
}
Refactor it!

I think this one is much better! Now, the separator is char instead of a string. You can go one step forward and provide char[] instead of a single char.

}

return sb.ToString().TrimEnd(separator);
}

Am I missing something? What's wrong with the following?

String.Join(",", new string[] { "Item 1", "Item 2" });

Nice MrBretticus, I completely forgot about the String.Join method. Thanks for reminding me!
