Stack.Contains Method

---

Class

System.Collections.Stack (standard version)

System.Collections.Generic.Stack (generic version)

Syntax

     Dim result As Boolean = stackVariable.Contains(obj) 

obj (required; any)

The object to search for on the stack

Description

The Contains method indicates whether a given object is somewhere on the stack (true) or not (False).

Usage at a Glance

• obj must correspond exactly to an item on the stack for the method to return TRue.

• String comparison is case-sensitive and is not affected by the setting of the OptionCompare statement.

Version Differences

Visual Basic 2005 adds support for generics to stacks, as discussed in Chapter 10.
