How to concatenate strings in conditional operator [Resolved]

Hi All,

I wanted to assign some strings to conditional oprator.


  body += " Store Number:" + storeRegistration.StoreNumber!=null?storeRegistration.StoreNumber:Convert.ToInt32(string.Empty);
body += " Store Name:" + storeRegistration.StoreName!=null?storeRegistration.StoreNumber:Convert.ToInt32(string.Empty);


In this case if string is empty i'm not able to concatenate the string "Store Number or Store Name" it works only if we have some values, not concatenating in case of empty strings

Try this

var sb = new StringBuilder();
sb.Append(" Store Number:");
sb.Append(storeRegistration.StoreNumber!=null? storeRegistration.StoreNumber:"0");
sb.Append(Environment.NewLine);
sb.Append(" Store Name:");
sb.Append(storeRegistration.StoreName!=null? storeRegistration.StoreNumber:"0");
body = sb.toString();

It is because Convert.ToInt32(string.Empty) throws error - input string was not in the correct format.

You can't convert an empty string to integer. So instead either keep it "" or "0".

body += " Store Number:" + storeRegistration.StoreNumber!=null?storeRegistration.StoreNumber:"";
body += " Store Name:" + storeRegistration.StoreName!=null?storeRegistration.StoreNumber:Convert.ToInt32("0");

Thanks
