Question

I’m sure I’ve missed something here. With a certain project I need to check if a string is null or empty.

Is there an easier way of writing this?

if (myString == null || myString == "")
{
   ...

Answer 1

Yes, there’s the String.IsNullOrEmpty helper method for exactly this already:

if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(myString)) {
    ...
}
