Replace Line Breaks in a String C#

Question

How can I replace Line Breaks within a string in C#?

Answer 1

I would use Environment.Newline when I wanted to insert a newline for a string, but not to remove all newlines from a string.

Depending on your platform you can have different types of newlines, but even inside the same platform often different types of newlines are used. In particular when dealing with file formats and protocols.

string ReplaceNewlines(string blockOfText, string replaceWith)
{
    return blockOfText.Replace("\r\n", replaceWith).Replace("\n", replaceWith).Replace("\r", replaceWith);
}
