double quotes in control scripts

[amitgolhani]

Hello,

Please let me know how to create following string in control script. I would like to create following for sending information in JSON format:

string text= '{"name":"John Johnson","street":"Oslo West 16","phone":"555 1234567"}';

Best Regards,

You have to surround the whole string with double quotes, and then escape the double quotes inside it with backslashes.

string text = "{\\"name\\":\\"John Johnson\\",\\"street\\":\\"Oslo West 16\\",\\"phone\\":\\"555 1234567\\"}";

I am getting folliwing response with backslashes:

WCCOAui1:["{\\"name\\":\\"John Johnson\\",\\"street\\":\\"Oslo West 16\\",\\"phone\\":\\"555 1234567\\"}"]

which is not correct as per JSON format.

Perhaps the logviewer also adds escape characters. You should try it by writing the string on a panel or to a file.

Hi Gertjan,

You are correct. Logviewer is adding escape character. I tried to send string on socket and getting correct string. Thanks!
