Easiest way to split a string on newlines in .net?

I’m trying to read out and interpret a string line per line. I took a look at the StringReader class, but I need to find out when I’m on the last line. Here’s some pseudocode of what I’m trying to accomplish:

while (!stringReaderObject.atEndOfStream()) {
    interpret(stringReaderObject.readLine());
}

Does somebody know how to do this?

Thanks!

If you are reading it in from a file, it is easier to do just do:

foreach(var myString in File.ReadAllLines(pathToFile))
    interpret(myString);

If you are getting the string from somewhere else (a web service class or the like) it is simpler to just split the string:

foreach(var myString in entireString.Split(new string[] { Environment.NewLine }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries))
    interpret(myString);
