Convert Dictionary<string,string> to semicolon separated string in c#

Question

using System.Linq;

string s = string.Join(";", myDict.Select(x => x.Key + "=" + x.Value).ToArray());

(And if you're using .NET 4, or newer, then you can omit the final ToArray call.)

Another option is to use the Aggregate extension rather than Join:

String s = myDict.Select(x => x.Key + "=" + x.Value).Aggregate((s1, s2) => s1 + ";" + s2);

For Linq to work over Dictionary you need at least .Net v3.5 and using System.Linq;.

Some alternatives:

string myDesiredOutput = string.Join(";", myDict.Select(x => string.Join("=", x.Key, x.Value)));

or

string myDesiredOutput = string.Join(";", myDict.Select(x => $"{x.Key}={x.Value}"));

If you can't use Linq for some reason, use Stringbuilder:

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
var isFirst = true;
foreach(var x in myDict) 
{
  if (isFirst) 
  {
    sb.Append($"{x.Key}={x.Value}");
    isFirst = false;
  }
  else
    sb.Append($";{x.Key}={x.Value}"); 
}

string myDesiredOutput = sb.ToString(); 

myDesiredOutput:

A=1;B=2;C=3;D=4
