CompareInfo.LastIndexOf Method (String, Char, Int32, CompareOptions)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Searches for the specified character and returns the zero-based index of the last occurrence within the section of the source string that extends from the beginning of the string to the specified index using the specified CompareOptions value.

Namespace:  System.Globalization
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Overridable Function LastIndexOf ( _
    source As String, _
    value As Char, _
    startIndex As Integer, _
    options As CompareOptions _
) As Integer
public virtual int LastIndexOf(
    string source,
    char value,
    int startIndex,
    CompareOptions options
)

Parameters

  • value
    Type: System.Char
    The character to locate within source.
  • startIndex
    Type: System.Int32
    The zero-based starting index of the backward search.

Return Value

Type: System.Int32
The zero-based index of the last occurrence of value within the section of source that extends from the beginning of source to startIndex using the specified CompareOptions value, if found; otherwise, -1.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException

source is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

startIndex is outside the range of valid indexes for source.

ArgumentException

options contains an invalid CompareOptions value.

Remarks

The source string is searched backward starting at startIndex and ending at the beginning of the string.

The CompareOptions.StringSort value is not valid for this method.

If options does not include the Ordinal value, this overload performs a culture-sensitive search. If the character is a Unicode value representing a precomposed character, such as the ligature "Æ" (U+00C6), it might be considered equivalent to any occurrence of its components in the correct sequence, such as "AE" (U+0041, U+0045), depending on the culture. If options includes the Ordinal value, this overload performs an ordinal (culture-insensitive) search. A character is considered equivalent to another character only if the Unicode values are the same.

Examples

The following example determines the indexes of the first and last occurrences of a character or a substring within a portion of a string. Note that IndexOf and LastIndexOf are searching in different portions of the string, even with the same startIndex parameter.
