Replacing all the '\' chars to '/' with C#

Question

How can I replace all the '\' chars in a string into '/' with C#? For example, I need to make @"c:/abc/def" from @"c:\abc\def".

Answer 1

The Replace function seems suitable:

string input = @"c:\abc\def";
string result = input.Replace(@"\", "/");

And be careful with a common gotcha:

Due to string immutability in .NET this function doesn't modify the string instance you are invoking it on => it returns the result.

Answer 2

You need to escape the \

mystring.Replace("\\", "/");

Answer 3

var replaced = originalStr.Replace( "\\", "/" );

Answer 4

var origString = origString.Replace(@"\", @"/");

Answer 5

string first = @"c:/abc/def";
string sec = first.Replace("/","\\");

Answer 6

@"C:\abc\def\".Replace(@"\", @"/");

Answer 7

string result = @"c:\asb\def".Replace(Path.DirectorySeparatorChar,Path.AltDirectorySeparatorChar);
