split string with string and retrieve value in c#

Question

string mystring = "-p \"C:\\Users\\mplususer\\Documents\\SharpDevelop Projects\\test\\test\\bin\\Debug\\test.exe\" -t False -r TestRun"

i have to extract from mystring whatever in front of command -r here is "Testrun"

string[] value = mystring .Split(new string[] { "\"-r " }, StringSplitOptions.None);
                if (value.Length != 0)
                {
                    runConfig = value[1].Replace("\"", "");
                }

Is this [post](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/491595/best-way-to-parse-command-line-arguments-in-c) answer your question? — Seb Krae, Nov 07 '17 at 10:02
This is not a question. Explain what is wrong with your current implementation. Is that command ALWAYS at the end of the string or may vary? — Renatas M., Nov 07 '17 at 10:06

I'd use this String.Split version:

string[] value = mystring.Split(new string[] {" -r " }, 2, StringSplitOptions.None);
string runConfig = value.Last().Split()[0];

The second Split is just for the case that there are other parameters after the -r possible.
