How can I pass a ListBox content to a string (array of strings?). I need to get a similar format of data:
Value1
Value2
Value3
Where each Value is a separate ListBox item.
EDITED: I wasn't too accurate with my question. I want to send desired list of values as an e-mail through my WPF application, unfortunately values are sent in one line. Even use of /n is not helping. What can I do to change appearance to list instead of string?
Simple one line solution:
List<string> items = ListBox1.Items.Cast<ListBoxItem>().Select(p=> p.Content as string).ToList();
You can use a single string value instead of an array to store the result as follows:
string emailData=string.Empty;
//get each item's text & append emailData.
foreach(var item in listBox1.Items)
{
string itemData=((ContentControl)item).Content.ToString();
emailData = emailData +itemData+"\n";
}
//Call the method that writes the data to email, remember to use Trim() while using emailData.
WriteToEmail(emailData.Trim());
public string[] get()
{
string[] arr = new string[listBox1.Items.Count];
for (int i = 0; i < listBox1.Items.Count; i++)
{
arr[i] = listBox1.Items[i].ToString();
}
return arr;
}
//lb is the Listbox; array is a string[]
lb.ItemsSource= array;
