Value to be converted to string. |
Details
Can be invoked implicitly, through the string_var= long_var expression (see example below). Compiler is smart enough to pre-calculate constant-only expressions involving implicit use of lstri function.
Examples
** Tibbo Basic **
dim l as long
dim s as string
l= -5123
s = lstri(l) 'explicit invocation.
s = l 'implicit invocation
s = lstri(-20) 'will be calculated at compilation -- no actual lstri function invokation will be here
