String splitting produces different results than expected

Question

it returns not what i expected. i expected something like:

ab
cab
ab

what am i doing wrong?

Answer 1

don't do .ToCharArray()

it will split \r then \n

that why you have empty value

something like this should work

var aa = ("a" & Environment.NewLine & "b" & Environment.NewLine & "c").Split(New String[] {Environment.NewLine}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);
