STRING CONST

STRING expressions return text strings. They are used to manipulate non-numeric data. The STRING CONST expression returns the same string constant, specified in a VALUE expression node.

See the EXPRESSION element for DTD and attribute information.

Example

This example creates a property called Name by concatenating three values, one of which is a constant functioning as a term separator. 

<EXPRESSION NAME="CREATE" TYPE="VOID">
   <EXPRNODE NAME="PROP_NAME" VALUE="Name"/>
   <EXPRESSION NAME="CONCAT" TYPE="STRING">
      <EXPRESSION NAME="IDENTITY" TYPE="PROPERTY">
         <EXPRNODE NAME="PROP_NAME" VALUE="file_name"/>
      </EXPRESSION>
      <EXPRESSION NAME="CONST" TYPE="STRING">
         <EXPRNODE NAME="VALUE" VALUE=", rev "/>
      </EXPRESSION>
      <EXPRESSION NAME="IDENTITY" TYPE="PROPERTY">
         <EXPRNODE NAME="PROP_NAME" VALUE="revision"/>
      </EXPRESSION>
   </EXPRESSION>
</EXPRESSION>
