Adding text to string variable

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by fless1 55

Hi

Is there a better way to add text to an existing variable other than:

 

set(textvariable,"Hello")

 

set(textvariable,concatenate(textvariable," how are you?"))

    Re: Adding text to string variable

    Hi,

     

    You could use the concat operator "&"

     

    In your example it would be something like this : set(textvariable, textvariable &" how are you?")

     

    Hope it helps.
