class

This class defines methods of string comparison that follow culture-specific rules. The CultureInfo.CompareInfo property contains an instance of this class. The Compare( ) method and other string searching methods, such as IndexOf( ) and IsPrefix( ) , can be passed a set of CompareOptions , which provide culture-specific flags related to strings. The GetCompareInfo( ) method is used instead of a public constructor to retrieve an instance of this class.
