C# EndsWith more than one value

Question

How can i get more values in a EndsWith?

For example

if(textbox1.Text.EndsWith("hotmail.com" && "anothermail.com"){

}

What to do?

I assume `&&` is a typo because I read that in my head as `ends with "hotmail.com" and "anothermail.com"` — ta.speot.is, Nov 29 '13 at 09:49

You can create an extension method:

public static bool EndsWithAny(this string str, params string[] search)
{
    return search.Any(s => str.EndsWith(s));
}

//Call
bool found = str.EndsWithAny("hotmail.com", "anothermail.com");

Shorter: `search.Any(str.EndsWith)` – Tim Schmelter Nov 29 '13 at 10:07
True, but I prefer writing the lambda expression as it is clearer. – Ahmed KRAIEM Nov 29 '13 at 10:35

If you want to get the results where the value ends with one string, or ends with the other string, then combine the two checks with a logical or:

if(textbox1.Text.EndsWith("hotmail.com") || textbox1.Text.EndsWith("anothermail.com")) { ... }

In case the OP has more than 2 strings to check, this is also possible: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2796891/string-endswith – Verena Haunschmid Nov 29 '13 at 09:48

string[] ends = new string[] { "hotmail.com" , "anothermail.com" };
string text = "example.hotmail.com2";
bool endsWith = ends.Any(e => text.EndsWith(e));

You could use a collection and Any+EndsWith:

var mails = new[] { "hotmail.com", "anothermail.com" };
bool endsWithAny= mails.Any(textbox1.Text.EndsWith);
