StrDup

Hello there-

Someone knows a page or document with a cross reference between VB.NET and
C#?

--For example. I cannot find easily an equivalence of the funcion StrDup of
VB.NET in C#

Harvey,

You can do this easily with the string constructor. There is an
overload that takes a character and the number of times to duplicate it and
creates a new string.

If you have a need for the exact logic (where you can pass non-strings,
or strings with more than one character, and it takes the first character),
then you can always set a refrence to Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll, and then
use the static StrDup function on the Strings class in the
Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace.

Hope this helps.
