Help with converting StrEvaluate to X#

Chris,
My current thinking is to only allow it in dialects where it is expect, in other words not in Vulcan and not in Core.

Sorry to necro old thread. Any idea when StrEvaluate will be implemented (or will not be at all)? It will compile but throw errors during runtime:

Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.
The method or operation is not implemented.

Thanks.

Boonnam,
Can you show me an example of how you are using this ?
(Apart from the previous example

Code: Select all

SELF:oNetClnt:SetFilter( StrEvaluate('MTYPE=="&cType"') )

And what is cType in this context. A local, a dynamic memory variable, anything else ?
Would it help if the compiler changes this to

Code: Select all

SELF:oNetClnt:SetFilter( ei"MTYPE=="{cType}"") )

that means, use an interpolated expression ?
