concat injects spaces

[udo.killermann]

Hi Bernd,

is this behaviour intended? If I call Concat("Cat","Dog""Mouse") I expect the resulting string "CatDogMouse". The OB implementation returns "Cat Dog Mouse" with spaces embedded between the strings. Now I have to use Replace to remove these spaces.

Kind regards
Udo

Hi Udo,
do think without spaces would be better?

Bernd,

I think you should omit the spaces in the Concat function. You could add a function ConactWithSpaces if you think this behaviour is needed.

BTW: How do Perl or awk concat strings? I think they don't add spaces - but have a look yourself.

Thanks for the ideas. Will do it for the next releases...
