Hello,
I am trying to build a string which is getting a bit too long as it contains double quotes.
Here is the code:
bufRetValueBuffer = Charact(34) + "ok" + Charact(34) + "," + Charact(34) + Charact(34) + "," + Charact(34) + Charact(34) + "," + Charact(34) + Charact(34) + "," + Charact(34) + Charact(34) I should the string like this:
Quote
"ok","","","",""
Is there any easier way to build strings with quotes (single as well as double)?
TIA

Hi, Yogi.
Two suggestions:
1. The quick and dirty way is to define a 1-character string for double quotes
DQ is string=Charact(34)
Your command would look like
bufRetValueBuffer=DQ+"ok"+DQ+","+DQ+DQ+","+DQ+DQ+","
2. A fancier way would be to define a procedure (local or global)
PROCEDURE DQ(x)
RESULT Charact(34)+x+Charact(34)
Your command would look like
bufRetValueBuffer=DQ("ok")+","+DQ("")+","+DQ("") |

Hi Yogi,
I think you can use triple quotes.
For better readability you could also use:
bufRetValueBuffer = Replace("-ok-,--,--,--","-",Charact(34))
or
bufRetValueBuffer = StringBuild("%1ok%1,%1%1,%1%1,%1%1",Charact(34))
Regards,

Hi Yogi
In addition to the other suggestions:
If the length of the line is a problem, as you said, you can cut it into two or more lines with ... (three periods). Like:
DQ is string=Charact(34) bufRetValueBuffer=DQ+"ok"+DQ+... ","+DQ+DQ+","+DQ... +DQ+","
best regards

You could also try building a string that contains "%1","%2","%3",... as many as you need.
Then StringBuild(YourString,Forename,Surname,Address1...)
Then you would see something like "Fred","Bloggs","1 High Street",...
Don't forget, you can also use arrays to build the content :spos:

Just doudle them or use the sintax:
my_string is string=[
aaa "bb" ccc
]
Paulo,
Thanks for the hint. It works perfectly and as I need it. Instead of adopting suggestions by others I prefer to go with your suggestion. It is easier and cleaner.
Thank you,
Yogi Yang |
