How to retrieve the value from Headers in C#?

Question

I have a variable fileContent which holds the value of FileName. I want the filename value to be stored in separate variable. How can I do this using C#?

Please find below code: This is what I have tried :

var fileContent = provider.Contents.FirstOrDefault(c => c.Headers.ContentDisposition.Name.Replace("\"", "") == "file");

var fileName = fileContent.Headers.ContentDisposition.FileName.FirstOrDefault();

I am getting the integer value as 34 in the variable fileName - instead of "Test.txt".. Please help to fix this!

don't treat Filename as an array and leave out the .FirstOrDefault(). The 34 is probably the ascii value of the opening quote in the file name.

Personally I never use var. Replace with the actual type you need, and you will see a better error message.

To remove the quotes, you might try to call something like Trim('"'). I don't have C# here to test though :-(
