String.Concat Method (Object, Object, Object)

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

Updated: October 2010

Concatenates the String representations of three specified objects.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Shared Function Concat ( _
    arg0 As Object, _
    arg1 As Object, _
    arg2 As Object _
) As String

public static string Concat(
    Object arg0,
    Object arg1,
    Object arg2
)

Parameters

arg0
Type: System.Object
The first object to concatenate.

arg1
Type: System.Object
The second object to concatenate.

arg2
Type: System.Object
The third object to concatenate.

Return Value

Type: System.String
The concatenated string representations of the values of arg0, arg1, and arg2.

Remarks

The method concatenates arg0, arg1, and arg2 by calling the parameterless ToString method of each object; it does not add any delimiters.

String.Empty is used in place of any null argument.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the Concat method.

Class Example

   Public Shared Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock)
      Dim i As Integer = -123
      Dim o As [Object] = i
      Dim objs() As [Object] = {-123, -456, -789}

      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("Concatenate 1, 2, and 3 objects:") & vbCrLf
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("1) {0}", [String].Concat(o)) & vbCrLf
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("2) {0}", [String].Concat(o, o)) & vbCrLf
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("3) {0}", [String].Concat(o, o, o)) & vbCrLf

      outputBlock.Text &= vbCrLf & "Concatenate 4 objects and a variable length parameter list:" & vbCrLf
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("4) {0}", [String].Concat(o, o, o, o, o)) & vbCrLf

      outputBlock.Text &= vbCrLf & "Concatenate a 3 element object array:" & vbCrLf
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("5) {0}", [String].Concat(objs)) & vbCrLf
   End Sub 'Main
End Class 'stringConcat5

'This example produces the following output:
'Concatenate 1, 2, and 3 objects:
'1) -123
'2) -123-123
'3) -123-123-123
'
'Concatenate 4 objects and a variable length parameter list:
'4) -123-123-123-123-123
'
'Concatenate a 3 element object array:
'5) -123-456-789
'
