Question

I am delimiting my data with the “//” as I am passing it up to my webservice. My webservice is splitting the data into an array like so:

myArray = al(i).ToString.Split("//")

Everything works great, however, if I pass in some data like this: 100/100 then that also gets split. Is there a way to make sure that only the “//” gets split?

Answer 1

The VB.Net compiler is converting your string into a Char array and calling this overload.
Thus, it’s splitting on either / or /.

You need to call the overload that takes a string array, like this:

"100/100".Split(New String() { "//" }, StringSplitOptions.None)
