Remove characters after specific character in string, then remove substring?
I feel kind of dumb posting this when this seems kind of simple and there are tons of questions on strings/characters/regex, but I couldn't find quite what I needed (except in another language: Remove All Text After Certain Point).
I've got the following code:
[Test]
public void stringManipulation()
{
String filename = "testpage.aspx";
String currentFullUrl = "http://localhost:2000/somefolder/myrep/test.aspx?q=qvalue";
String fullUrlWithoutQueryString = curr开发者_StackOverflow中文版entFullUrl.Replace("?.*", "");
String urlWithoutPageName = fullUrlWithoutQueryString.Remove(fullUrlWithoutQueryString.Length - filename.Length);
String expected = "http://localhost:2000/somefolder/myrep/";
String actual = urlWithoutPageName;
Assert.AreEqual(expected, actual);
}
I tried the solution in the question above (hoping the syntax would be the same!) but nope. I want to first remove the queryString which could be any variable length, then remove the page name, which again could be any length.
How can I get the remove the query string from the full URL such that this test passes?
For string manipulation, if you just want to kill everything after the ?, you can do this
string input = "http://www.somesite.com/somepage.aspx?whatever";
int index = input.IndexOf("?");
if (index >= 0)
input = input.Substring(0, index);
Edit: If everything after the last slash, do something like
string input = "http://www.somesite.com/somepage.aspx?whatever";
int index = input.LastIndexOf("/");
if (index >= 0)
input = input.Substring(0, index); // or index + 1 to keep slash
Alternately, since you're working with a URL, you can do something with it like this code
System.Uri uri = new Uri("http://www.somesite.com/what/test.aspx?hello=1");
string fixedUri = uri.AbsoluteUri.Replace(uri.Query, string.Empty);
To remove everything before the first /
input = input.Substring(input.IndexOf("/"));
To remove everything after the first /
input = input.Substring(0, input.IndexOf("/") + 1);
To remove everything before the last /
input = input.Substring(input.LastIndexOf("/"));
To remove everything after the last /
input = input.Substring(0, input.LastIndexOf("/") + 1);
An even more simpler solution for removing characters after a specified char is to use the String.Remove() method as follows:
To remove everything after the first /
input = input.Remove(input.IndexOf("/") + 1);
To remove everything after the last /
input = input.Remove(input.LastIndexOf("/") + 1);
Here's another simple solution. The following code will return everything before the '|' character:
if (path.Contains('|'))
path = path.Split('|')[0];
In fact, you could have as many separators as you want, but assuming you only have one separation character, here is how you would get everything after the '|':
if (path.Contains('|'))
path = path.Split('|')[1];
(All I changed in the second piece of code was the index of the array.)
The Uri class is generally your best bet for manipulating Urls.
To remove everything before a specific char, use below.
string1 = string1.Substring(string1.IndexOf('$') + 1);
What this does is, takes everything before the $ char and removes it. Now if you want to remove the items after a character, just change the +1 to a -1 and you are set!
But for a URL, I would use the built in .NET class to take of that.
Request.QueryString
helps you to get the parameters
and values included within the URL
example
string http = "http://dave.com/customers.aspx?customername=dave"
string customername = Request.QueryString["customername"].ToString();
so the customername variable should be equal to dave

I second Hightechrider: there is a specialized Url class already built for you.
I must also point out, however, that the PHP's replaceAll uses regular expressions for search pattern, which you can do in .NET as well - look at the RegEx class.
you can use .NET's built in method to remove the QueryString
.
i.e., Request.QueryString.Remove["whatever"];
here whatever in the [ ] is name of the
querystring
which you want to remove.
Try this... I hope this will help.
