[Android.Runtime.Register("compareToIgnoreCase", "(Ljava/lang/String;)I", "")]
public int CompareToIgnoreCase (string str);
[<Android.Runtime.Register("compareToIgnoreCase", "(Ljava/lang/String;)I", "")>]
member this.CompareToIgnoreCase : string -> int
Parameters
a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as the
specified String is greater than, equal to, or less
than this String, ignoring case considerations.
Attributes
RegisterAttribute
Remarks
Compares two strings lexicographically, ignoring case differences. This method returns an integer whose sign is that of calling
compareTo
with normalized versions of the strings where case differences have been eliminated by calling
Character.toLowerCase(Character.toUpperCase(character))
on each character.
Note that this method does <em>not</em> take locale into account, and will result in an unsatisfactory ordering for certain locales. The
java.text.Collator
class provides locale-sensitive comparison.
