How to escape backslash (\) in X++

admin

 

There are times when you would want to write a backslash (\) in a string in X++. For instance, I would want to get the path of a file on Path:

C:\Users\UserName\Documents\Tasks

The backslash (“\”) character is a special escape character used to indicate other special characters such as new lines (\n), tabs (\t), or quotation marks (\”), therefore If you want to include a backslash character itself, you need two backslashes.

 

str itemFilePath = strFmt(“C:\\Users\\UserName\\Documents\Tasks”);

 

Merci
