Why use String.Concat() ?

[CoperNick]

value = String.Concat(value, intValue.ToString(), ".");

logBuilder = String.Concat("some long text",
"some long text. ");

String errorMessage = String.Concat("Long text, exception: ", ex.ToString());

And this is the best:

String errorMessage = String.Concat(".... packet is fail, exception: ", ex.ToString());
SomeClass.someMember.Error(String.Concat(errorMessage));

String.Concat("Someone has fallen in love with", "String.Concat");

(yes|no|maybe)*

I think I have spotted this coder in the wild! http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11032394/substring-not-working-as-expected-if-length-greater-than-length-of-string[^] :laugh:

That has to be him! :laugh:

public class SysAdmin : Employee
{

 public override void DoWork(IWorkItem workItem)
 {
      if (workItem.User.Type == UserType.NoLearn){
         throw new NoIWillNotFixYourComputerException(new Luser(workItem.User));
      }else{
           base.DoWork(workItem);
      }
 }

}

This is just as bad as my example of String.Format. :doh: :wtf:

No matter where you go, there you are...~?~

If you've read anything about strings, you must have read that you should use StringBuilder instead. "some text" + "some more" + " text" is expensive. I would guess Concat gives you a performance boost similar to StringBuilder, but limited to strings. I have to admit that appending each value individually in builder is bothersome. I know I wanted to find out how much builder helps, so I built a cpu intensive process with accounting numbers. I mixed fixed text with numbers to a string using + logic. Got the actual coding to work and changed over to StringBuilder. Processing went from 40 minutes to 20 minutes. Then I changed the logic to only use builder when I needed to save the stat strings. Cut down to 7 minutes. Then played with the process order and it went to 4 minutes. Needed to buy my second laptop in 7 years to cut it to 2 minutes. :)
