Methods

• Clear() - Empties the string
• V() - Adds a variable of ANY type to the string
• L() - Adds a literal to the string i.e. L('this is a literal')
• GetString() - Returns the resulting string

Usage example

VAR
  fbConcater : FB_Concater;
  stringResult : STRING;

  myInt : INT := 123;
  myReal : REAL := 45.67;
  myWord : WORD := 16#ABCD;
  myString : STRING := 'example';
  myBool : BOOL := TRUE;
END_VAR


fbConcater.Clear().V(myInt).L('/').V(myReal).L('/').V(myBool).L('/').V(myWord).L('/').V(myString);

stringResult := fbConcater.GetString(); // Will result in the following string '123/45.67/TRUE/43981/example'
