|
|
I have TSILang on Delphi XE3, Windows 7 Professional
I would like to know how to get TsiLang to cope with strings that span multiple lines and which have carriage returns within them.
I have this code before scanning for strings:
Code: | const
crlf2 = #13#10#13#10;
TestMultiLineString = 'Line 01' + crlf2 +
'Line 02'; |
After calling Const Section Without Form, I get this:
Code: | TestMultiLineString: string = 'Line 01' + crlf2 + // TSI: Localized (Don't modify!)
'Line 02'; |
So, the text returned by GetTextOrDefault('strTestMultiLineString') will only have the first line.
The example is trivial and the lines are short. I know I could join them all into a single line. But, in my real project I have many string constants that are long and contain several lines (and this is how they need to be displayed on the screen).
What is the correct way to deal with this situation please? |

Just use #13#10 or ^M instead of crlf2. TsiLang Expert can't compile your units and detect the value of predefined constants, but if you will use #13#10 instead of crlf2 it will recognaize this as multiline constant.
Hope this helps. |

Ok - I can manage that. Thank you. |
