msg1 = TESTR

const TESTR as char[11] = (72,69,76,76,79,32,87,79,82,76,68,0)
dim msg1 as string[20]
msg1 = TESTR

Hello,

Works, very good, but you must define type of constant ...

Code: Select all

const TESTR as string[11] = "Hello World"

dim msg1 as string[20]

msg1 = TESTR

yes that works! But help says: compiler will asume automatically string as in my version.(In former compiler version (avr,dspic) it worked that way too!
It seems that there are some changes.
