String Concatenation in Windows PowerShell
How to concatenate strings in Windows PowerShell? I want to join two strings together.
✍: FYIcenter.com
The easiest way to join two strings together is to use the concatenate operator (+)
as shown in the example below:
PS C:\fyicenter> $name = "John" PS C:\fyicenter> # using string concatenation operation PS C:\fyicenter> $msg = "Hello "+$name+"!" PS C:\fyicenter> Write-Host $msg Hello John!
Another way to join multiple strings together is the "-Join" operation, which takes an array of strings and returns a single string with array elements joined together. See the example below:
PS C:\fyicenter> $name = "John" PS C:\fyicenter> # using -Join operation PS C:\fyicenter> $msg = -Join ("Hello ", $name, "!") PS C:\fyicenter> Write-Host $msg Hello John!
If you are .NET developer, you probably want to use the System.Text.StringBuilder class to build a long string with smaller pieces as shown in the example below:
PS C:\fyicenter> $name = "John" PS C:\fyicenter> $str = new-object System.Text.StringBuilder PS C:\fyicenter> # appending another string to the end of a string PS C:\fyicenter> $str = $str.Append("Hello ") PS C:\fyicenter> $str = $str.Append($name) PS C:\fyicenter> $str = $str.Append("!") PS C:\fyicenter> $msg = $str.ToString() PS C:\fyicenter> Write-Host $msg Hello John!
