I have following code in VS2008
If Linq.Enumerable.Contains(Of String)(selectedUsersRoles, RoleCheckBox.Text) Then
RoleCheckBox.Checked = True
Else
RoleCheckBox.Checked = False
End If
I need the above code in VS2005
What can i do instead of linq in above code? Can anybody help?
RoleCheckBox.Checked = False
For Each str As String in selectedUsersRoles
If str = RoleCheckBox.Text Then
RoleCheckBox.Checked = True
Exit For
End If
Next
If you don't wish to alter the RoleCheckBox.Checked twice (when str is actually found) then declare a boolean flag (i.e. boolFound) with an initial False value, change it to true when found, and asign RoleCheckBox.Checked = boolFound after the "for each" loop....
bool containsRole = false;
foreach(string entry in selectedUsersRoles)
{
if(entry == RoleCheckBox.Text)
{
containsRole = true;
break;
}
}
RoleCheckBox.Checked = containsRole;
The code is C# but i guess u'll get the idea. This is for IEnumerable. If you have a list try Binary Worrier's sollution.
