En fonction de la robustesse et de la souplesse que vous souhaitez donner à votre mise en œuvre, cela peut s'avérer un peu délicat. Voici l'implémentation que j'utilise :
public static class StringExtensions {
/// <summary>
/// takes a substring between two anchor strings (or the end of the string if that anchor is null)
/// </summary>
/// <param name="this">a string</param>
/// <param name="from">an optional string to search after</param>
/// <param name="until">an optional string to search before</param>
/// <param name="comparison">an optional comparison for the search</param>
/// <returns>a substring based on the search</returns>
public static string Substring(this string @this, string from = null, string until = null, StringComparison comparison = StringComparison.InvariantCulture)
{
var fromLength = (from ?? string.Empty).Length;
var startIndex = !string.IsNullOrEmpty(from)
? @this.IndexOf(from, comparison) + fromLength
: 0;
if (startIndex < fromLength) { throw new ArgumentException("from: Failed to find an instance of the first anchor"); }
var endIndex = !string.IsNullOrEmpty(until)
? @this.IndexOf(until, startIndex, comparison)
: @this.Length;
if (endIndex < 0) { throw new ArgumentException("until: Failed to find an instance of the last anchor"); }
var subString = @this.Substring(startIndex, endIndex - startIndex);
return subString;
}
}
// usage:
var between = "a - to keep x more stuff".Substring(from: "-", until: "x");
// returns " to keep "
