functioncontains

Check if a string contains a substring

Extends from Modelica.Icons.Function (Icon for functions).

Information

Syntax

result = Strings.contains(string, searchString);
result = Strings.contains(string, searchString, caseSensitive);

Description

Returns true if "searchString" is a substring of "string". Otherwise, false is returned. The optional argument "caseSensitive" controls if substrings match, which differ in case only.

Empty strings are treated as substring of all strings. Therefore, the result is always true if "searchString" is empty.

Example

import Modelica.Utilities.Strings.contains;

contains("foobar", "OO");         // returns false
contains("foobar", "OO", false);  // returns true
contains("foo", "bar");           // returns false
contains("", "");                 // returns true
contains("foo", "");              // returns true
