I know it wouldn't be hard to write, but I have been unable to find a method
which will take elements of a character array and concatenate them into a
string. I've looked at both String members and Char members and haven't
found any such method. But it seems so obvious. So I figure I just haven't
hit upon the right Google search arguments.
I just want a function which will concatenate some consecutive elements of a
Char array. I know it must exist, I just haven't been able to find it.
Thanks, Bob

String type has constructor that may taka a char array as argument, i
hope that does:
' Define your char array
Dim charArr() As Char = _
{"b", "a", "s", "i", "c"}
Dim str As New String(charArr)
' Here is your concatenated string
MsgBox(str)

Hi,
What are those VB conversion functions strong.
Dim charar As Char() = {"1"c, "2"c, "3"c}
Dim B As String = CStr(charar)

Geez, I did look at all String methods but never thought to look at the
constructor! That's the solution I like best, but thanks to ALL responders.
You guys are great.

There's nothing easier than that:
\\\
Dim c() As Char = {"A"c, "B"c, "C"c}
Dim s As String = c
MsgBox(s)
///
VB provides an implicit widening conversion for 'Char()' -'String', even
with 'Option Strict On'. Widening conversions never fail because the value

Thanks Herfried. That's interesting and useful. I need only so many
characters starting at a specific offset within the char array. As someone
else pointed out a String constructor overload can do exactly that. But I
like the capability you've made me aware of and I know I'll be using it
soon.
Thanks again, Bob

As it's an implicit conversion, you can make it explicit if you want
without changing the resulting code:
Dim s As String = New String(c)
More to type, but it more clearly shows what's actally going on.

Not at all. It's the .NET approach. It's not specific to any language,
which is proven by the fact that it works just a well in VB.
The .NET approach doesn't lack anything in this case, as the VB approach
doesn't add anything. It just works as a wrapper.

Well, I do not see any reason for that as widening conversions are not
harmful and always succeed. There's nothing wrong with implicit widening
conversions. I would not write 'Dim n As Long = CLng(<Integer>)' too.
Widening conversions are similar to the type/subtype relationship and I
assume you would not write 'Dim x As BaseClass = DirectCast(<DerivedClass>,
BaseClass)' in your code.

For readability. The code more closely resembles what's actually
happening, and perhaps also more closely resembles the intention of the
programmer.
I often use explicit conversions even if there might be an implicit
conversion. It's easier to maintain the code when it says exactly what's
happening.
