How to use StringComparison for strings in C#?

Question

string body = Selenium.GetBodyText();

if (body.Contains("software", StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase))
{
   //do something
}

I get a string does not contain a definition for Contains message when I do the above. What am I doing wrong here? Thanks in advance everyone!

I am trying to check if body has the string "software", "Software" or "SOFTWARE". body will contain paragraphs and paragraphs of text (string).

Answer 1

I don't believe string has an overload of Contains taking a StringComparison. However, you could use IndexOf which does:

if (body.IndexOf("software", StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase) != -1)

Answer 2

String.Contains only take one parameter - your code should be

bodyText.Contains("software");
