thedesolatesoul Expert Licensed User Longtime User Jan 21, 2015 #2 Example 1 Example "2" Example 3: The "value" of FirstTime is True. 10 / 3 = 3.33 Sin (45) = 2.72 Today is 21/01/2015 Are you sure this works? It seems like a perl/tcl expression evaluation within strings.

Erel B4X founder Staff member Licensed User Longtime User Jan 21, 2015 #3 You are almost correct. I see three mistakes (one is not really related). thedesolatesoul said: Are you sure this works? Click to expand... It will in the next version. This is a new string literal that makes it easier to create strings. The three main advantages: multiline, (formatted) string interpolation and no need to escape quotes. Last edited: Jan 22, 2015

Erel B4X founder Staff member Licensed User Longtime User Jan 21, 2015 #4 The equivalent code: There is a missing quote in line 37...
thedesolatesoul Expert Licensed User Longtime User Jan 21, 2015 #6 Insane. Now lets see who spots the three mistakes. (I didnt!)

S sorex Expert Licensed User Longtime User Jan 22, 2015 #11 @Erel : just wondering... what is the point of these $ wrapped around the string in the first line? why don't you need double quotes there like we need for normal strings?

LucaMs Expert Licensed User Longtime User Jan 22, 2015 #13 Read post #3, Luca !!! So, we will have a new operator called: "SmartDollar". If I wake up, can I (we) suggest other "features" of that operator? Last edited: Jan 22, 2015

S sorex Expert Licensed User Longtime User Jan 22, 2015 #17 any chance that this would be the default for all string operations? PHP also has this variables in strings method ( echo "the time is $now in {$myarray[0]}"; ) easier (to read) than all the concating

This may break existing code. Note that the IDE will autocomplete the closing $" automatically so it is really simple to use the new string literal instead of the standard one.

Erel B4X founder Staff member Licensed User Longtime User Jan 22, 2015 #20 Nothing is missing. The new string literal supports multiline strings.
