Use string.Contains() with switch()

Question

I'm doing an C# app where I use

if ((message.Contains("test")))
{
   Console.WriteLine("yes");
} else if ((message.Contains("test2"))) {
   Console.WriteLine("yes for test2");
}

There would be any way to change to switch() the if() statements?

Answer 1

Correct final syntax for [Mr. C]s answer.

With the release of VS2017RC and its C#7 support it works this way:

switch(message)
{
    case string a when a.Contains("test2"): return "no";
    case string b when b.Contains("test"): return "yes";
}

You should take care of the case ordering as the first match will be picked. That's why "test2" is placed prior to test.
