"@"Is this a bug????

[tssing]

Why I can't include "@" at first ??

for example::

var.strtest = "@hello"

If you check strtest, you will find out Var.strtest value is "hello",,"@" missing,..

another way::

Var.strtest = "hello@hello"

It will be true ....

Using @ in a string as the first character is used by the multilingual feature of DAQFactory to specify a string that might be translated. By default, the @ is dropped and the rest of the string used, but if you had an alternative language specified with a translations for "hello", it would use the translation instead. Please see the help file/user's guide, "Pages and Components" -> "Creating multi-lingual applications".

To put a real @ as the first character, simply put two:

var.strtest = "@@hello"

Also, @ only triggers the multilingual translation if its the first character of a string.

Please fix this problem..Because many protocol of device first character is "@"....

Its not a problem, but a part of the language. You have two choices:

var.strtest= "@@hello"

or:

var.strtest = chr(64) + "hello"

Both will result in the string "@hello"
