How to convert list to string

Sivakumar

Hi,

This is my view :

protected void ButtonSave_OnClick(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

List _placeholder = (List)Session["listPlaceholder"];

OrdersModel order = new OrdersModel();

order.UserID = (int)Session["userId"];

order.TemplateID = (int)Session["TemplateID"];

order.Price = ((List)Session["SelectedAddress"]).Count * 1;

var address = (List)Session["SelectedAddress"];

_orderBL.ConfirmOrder(address, _placeholder,order);

}

and this is my Business Layer :

public string ConfirmOrder(string address, string _placeholder, OrdersModel order)

{

try

{

OrdersDL _ordersDL = new OrdersDL(); // Creating object of Dataccess

return _ordersDL.ConfirmOrder(address,_placeholder,order); // calling Method of DataAccess

}

catch

{

throw;

}

But here shows error like cannot convert list to string

Please help me.

Thanks

Hi,

Converting list to string example :
string combindedString = string.Join( ",", urList.ToArray() );

You can use stringbuilder.

StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
foreach (string item in _placeholder)
{
builder.Append(item).Append("|");
}
string result = builder.ToString();

Now you can pass result as a parameter to your method.
