|
ReplaceStringInstance |
String replace function that support public static string ReplaceStringInstance(string origString, string findString, string replaceWith, int instance, bool caseInsensitive) |

|
StringToStream |
Creates a Stream from a string. Internally creates a memory stream and returns that. public static Stream StringToStream(string text, Encoding encoding) |
|
StripNonNumber |
Strips all non digit values from a string and only returns the numeric string. public static string StripNonNumber(string input) |
|
