How can I use a quote as a literal so it does get confused as not a literal?
Thanks!

Quotes can be escaped by doubling.
Dim s as String = "<img src=""image1.jp g"">"

If you mean within a string, try something like this:
Label1.Text = "This displays a quotation mark = ""!"
The double quotes before the exclamation mark will display as a single
quote, part of the literal.

True, but ersonally I prefer to use ControlChars.Qu ote and build the string
up as I find it easier to read

So what would that look like in a literal string nested with variables? Like
this??
strMyString = "I am about to have a "COW" for the " + Counter + " time!"
strMyString = "I am about to have a ControlChars.Qu ote COW
ControlChars.Qu ote for the " + Counter + " time!"
Thanks! Bob

You have to put ControlChars.Qu ote outside of the string:
strMyString = "I am about to have a " & ControlChars.Qu ote & "COW" &
ControlChars.Qu ote & " for the " & Counter & " time!"
In my opinion, this is not easier to read than:
strMyString = "I am about to have a ""COW"" for the " & Counter & " time!"

Not to mention the minor performance hit for string concatenation for
using ControlChars.Qu ote

Surely the compiler evaluates such things at compile-time? Or is that where
you're saying the performance hit comes?
Ugh! I just put
Dim a As Integer = CInt(1 / Math.Sin(0))
and it didn't complain until run-time. So it has a limit to what it'll try
to evaluate, e.g. it does complain about
Dim a As Integer = CInt(1 / 0)
"Constant expression not representable in type Integer".

ControlChars.Qu ote is a constant so the compiler concatenates it a
compile time. Now the Counter variable, not being a constant, will
cause a concatenation at runtime, but there's not performance hit to
using ControlChars.Qu ote. I agree with Goran that using "" is easier
to read.

Hi Bob
You can use quotes in this way:
Dim strCad as String = "I am about to have a ""COW"" for the " +
Counter + " time!"
Just using double quotes... Do I make myself clear? This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

Hi,
What's the advantage/disadvantage of using a "const char*" over a
"char*" ? I read some place that char* are string literals that on some
machines are stored in a read only memory and cannot be modified... does
that apply on const char*?
thanks

I wanted a web page where I could post code to, and have it appear in coloured formatting based on the context of the code.
Most of the techniques I have seen for this involve complex use of string manipulation where they seek through the string back and forth doing replacements to substitute in the needed HTML code.
I am convinced that this can be done with a few regular expressions. Unfortunately my knowledge of regular...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
