String.IndexOfAny Method (array<Char[])

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

Reports the zero-based index of the first occurrence in this instance of any character in a specified array of Unicode characters.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function IndexOfAny ( _
    anyOf As Char() _
) As Integer

public int IndexOfAny(
    char[] anyOf
)

Parameters

  • anyOf
    Type: array<System.Char[]
    A Unicode character array containing one or more characters to seek.

Return Value

Type: System.Int32
The zero-based index position of the first occurrence in this instance where any character in anyOf was found; otherwise, -1 if no character in anyOf was found.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException

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

Remarks

Index numbering starts from zero.

The search for anyOf is case-sensitive.

This method performs an ordinal (culture-insensitive) search, where a character is considered equivalent to another character only if their Unicode scalar values are the same. To perform a culture-sensitive search, use the CompareInfo.IndexOf method, where a Unicode scalar value representing a precomposed character, such as the ligature 'Æ' (U+00C6), might be considered equivalent to any occurrence of the character's components in the correct sequence, such as "AE" (U+0041, U+0045), depending on the culture.
