    Did I mention that this was an argument to string.Split() which is defined to take (params char[])? They could have simply typed: ';'

    It would have been a gem if the code was something like this:

    "argument1;argument2;argument3".Split(";".ToString());

    :-D

    I have no smart signature yet...

      This is what I have seen years ago.

      a.ToString().ToString();

      Yeah... he was just tired... couldn't prevent a prank by Intellisence.

        The one I loathe is

        string s = "Hello";
        string x = s.ToString();

            That was only introduced in .NET 3.5 IIRC. I have written similar code ages back too.

              Same here - and until today I still would have had I not seen your post and tried using a single char parameter. Thanks

                  Well, I can't say, the fuckin page is stuck on C++ :( PS: IIRC C++ does not support .NET params. Update: IE to the rescue. I see it was there (in 2.0), maybe I am thinking of something else...

                      Sorry. I deleted it because it could be a mere slander.

                        I don't know what else you could be thinking of - you were talking about the params overload for .NET 2.0 right?

                            problem: why "i don't rember exactly the hard coded string".ToString.ToUpper(); ? answer: I just hate writting using caps. Concluzion: I'm sure he/she had his reasons. :)
