Tests whether the specified string could be set successfully.
public:
bool VerifyString(System::String ^ input);C#
public bool VerifyString(string input);member this.VerifyString : string -> boolPublic Function VerifyString (input As String) As BooleanParameters
Returns
true if the specified string represents valid input; otherwise, false.
Remarks
The VerifyString applies the input string against the mask, without actually changing the formatted string, to test whether input would be valid in a corresponding Set operation. This method also returns true if input is null or has zero length.

public bool VerifyString(string input, out int testPosition, out System.ComponentModel.MaskedTextResultHint resultHint);member this.VerifyString : string * int * MaskedTextResultHint -> boolPublic Function VerifyString (input As String, ByRef testPosition As Integer, ByRef resultHint As MaskedTextResultHint) As BooleanParameters
- testPosition
- Int32
If successful, the zero-based position of the last character actually tested; otherwise, the first position where the test failed. An output parameter.
- resultHint
- MaskedTextResultHint
A MaskedTextResultHint that succinctly describes the result of the test operation. An output parameter.
Returns
true if the specified string represents valid input; otherwise, false.
Remarks
The VerifyString applies the input string against the mask, without actually changing the formatted string, to test whether input would be valid in a corresponding Set operation. This method also returns true if input is null or has zero length.
This version of VerifyString provides two additional output parameters to convey more information about the operation of the method.
