string

When comparing "Île" and "Ile", C# does not consider these to be to be the same.

    string.Equals("Île", "Ile", StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase)

For all other accented characters I have come across the comparison works fine.

Is there another comparison function I should use?

In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions… >>> More
