String.Split with a String?

Question

I have what is probably a very simple question.

I want to do a classic String.Split(), but with a string, not a character. Like string.Split("word") and get back an array just like if I had done string.Split('x').

Answer 1

There is an available function overload on string.Split but it takes an array and an enum.

string test = "1Test2";
string[] results = test.Split(new string[] { "Test" }, StringSplitOptions.None);

Will yield an array containing "1" and "2".

Answer 2

You can use String.Split(string[], StringSplitOptions options).

The code will look like:

var results = theString.Split(new[] {"word"}, StringSplitOptions.None);
