MySQL Real Escape Function in C#

If you need a similiar function to the mysql_real_escape_string() from php, you might could use this one:

[sourcecode language=”csharp”]

public static string MySQLEscape(string str)
{
return Regex.Replace(str, @”[\x00′””\b\n\r\t\cZ\\%_]”,
delegate(Match match)
{
string v = match.Value;
switch (v)
{
case “\x00”:            // ASCII NUL (0x00) character
return “\\0”;
case “\b”:              // BACKSPACE character
return “\\b”;
case “\n”:              // NEWLINE (linefeed) character
return “\\n”;
case “\r”:              // CARRIAGE RETURN character
return “\\r”;
case “\t”:              // TAB
return “\\t”;
case “\u001A”:          // Ctrl-Z
return “\\Z”;
default:
return “\\” + v;
}
});
}
