<QString>
Quoted string of ASCII text
Follow these rules when you use quoted strings:
H A quoted string can include any character defined in the 7Ćbit ASCII
character set. (See Appendix A on page AĆ1).
H Use the same type of quote character to open and close the string:
”this is a valid string”
H You can mix quotation marks within a string as long as you follow the
previous rule:
”this is an ’acceptable’ string”
H You can include a quote character within a string simply by repeating the
quote. For example,
”here is a ”” mark”
H Strings can have upper or lower case characters.
H You cannot terminate a quoted string with the END message before the
closing delimiter.
H A carriage return or line feed embedded in a quoted string does not
terminate the string, but is treated as just another character in the string.
H The maximum length of a quoted string returned from a query is 1000
characters.
Here are some invalid strings:
”Invalid string argument’
(quotes are not of the same type)
”test<EOI>”
(termination character is embedded in the string)
