What's the C# equivalent of Java CharSequence type?

Question

I'm working on converting a Java project to C#, but don't know what CharSequence is corresponding to C# type.

Answer 1

There is no direct equivalent in c#. Use string instead.

The Java CharSequence is a simple abstraction, that allows methods with simple needs to accept a String, CharBuffer, Segment, StringBuffer, or StringBuilder without having to convert the others to String first.

It allows minor performance improvement in Java for some API methods.
