Hi,
I'm looking for the equivalent of this function to repeat string:
Share
Reportinfo(strRFix('Alex',10,'*')); //******Alex => ok
i want somthing like :
info(strRFix('Alex',15,'strRep')); // iget sssssssssssAlex but how to get : strRepStrReAlex
Any help ?

Hi Alex
Another options is to use the .NET Framework CLR type.
msdn.microsoft.com/.../cc584291.aspx
Below an example that for sure can improve and become an Global Function :
System.String string, replaceChar;
str finalString, fixedString = 'Alex';
int stringLenght = 10;
// Your version
info(strRFix('Alex',stringLenght,'*'));
//////////////////
replaceChar = "X";
string = New System.String(replaceChar.get_Chars(0), stringLenght);
string = string.Replace(replaceChar, "*");
finalString = string.ToString();
finalString = subStr(finalString, 1, stringLenght - strLen(fixedString) ) + fixedString;
Info (finalString);
Hi Alex,
There is no function out of the box to do what you asking, at least I'm not aware of. However, you can always write new one.
Here is small example I built for you:
All responses (
Answers (
str myMagicStrRep(str _source, str _strRep, int _number)
{
int sourceLength = strLen(_source);
int strRepLength = strLen(_strRep);
int repCount;
if (_number < 1 || !strRepLength)
{
return '';
}
if (sourceLength > _number)
{
return subStr(_source, 1, _number);
}
repCount = (_number div strRepLength) + 1;
return subStr(strRep( _strRep, repCount), 1, _number - sourceLength) + _source;
}
info (myMagicStrRep('Alex','strRep', 15));
It's not ideal and you definitely could improve it, but I think you will get an idea.
