[Mono-devel-list] System.String::Intern()

[Varga Zoltan]

                                                 Hi,

  Only the literal strings in the assembly are put into the
intern pool,
so 

String.Intern ("A") 

will return the same string, while

string foo = "A";
string bar = "B";

String.Intern (foo + bar)

will return a new interned string

            bye

                   Zoltan
