Answer 1

C# Split String Examples

Answer 2

There's some good libraries mentioned on 631410 and 491595. I've personally used the WPF TestAPI Library mentioned by sixlettervariables and it is indeed pretty darn good

Answer 3

Try

string values = "ApplicationId =1; Name =2";
string[] pairs = values.Split(';');

string value1 = pairs[0].Split('=')[1];
string value2 = pairs[1].Split('=')[1];

You'll need better error checking of course, but value1 and value2 should be "1" and "2" respectively

Answer 4

It isn't entirely clear to me, but I'm going to assume that the arguments are actually:

 ApplicationId=1 Name=2

the spacing etc is important due to how the system splits arguments. In a Main(string[] args) method, that will be an array length 2. You can process this, for example into a dictionary:

    static void Main(string[] args) {
        Dictionary<string, string> options = new Dictionary<string, string>();
        foreach (string arg in args)
        {
            string[] pieces = arg.Split('=');
            options[pieces[0]] = pieces.Length > 1 ? pieces[1] : "";
        }

        Console.WriteLine(options["Name"]); // access by key

        // get just the values
        string[] vals = new string[options.Count];
        options.Values.CopyTo(vals, 0);
    }
