String Builder

use of string builder in asp.net
please post examples for string builder

 

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder("1 = ");
sb.Append("One");
sb.Append(Environment.NewLine);
sb.AppendLine("2 = Two");
sb.AppendLine("3 = Three");
Displays:

1 = One
2 = Two
3 = Three

 

StringBuilder can be used instead of String and it provides most of the methods of String class. Since strings are immutable (they cannot be changed) so even when you change a single character in string the whole string gets recreated. Therefore if you need to do many string manipulations you should use StringBuilder class instead for performance reasons.
