Line Break in J#

[haroldjclements]

Hello All,

 

Just a quick question. I have written a little app that lists the users in a database and the results are displayed in a ‘label’ on a form. My problem is that I can not create a line break, therefore I get results like this:

 

Harold Clements Dave Brown Iain

Smith Lee Cooper

 

Where I want:

 

Harold Clements

Dave Brown

Iain Smith

Lee Cooper

 

In traditional Java you have the ‘\n’ but in J# that creates a compiling error.

 

Any suggestions will be gratefully received,

Harold Clements

I use 'Environment.NewLine' in VB.NET, I'm not sure if it works for J#

I'd use Environment.NewLine first. If you need or want the \n I would assume the backslash needs to be doubled up:

"name\\nname2" becomes:

name

name2

 

-ner

Still Can't Get It!

 

Cheers for your reply guys

 

The ‘\\n’ doses not work.

 

The 'Environment.NewLine' is not in J#, in its places (I think) is 'System.Environment.getNewLine’. However I get the compilation error “Cannot resolve name’

 

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

 

Thanks for you help,

Harold

Got it!

 

It's me being a prat!

 

System.Environment.get_NewLine();

 

Forgot the () on the end.

 

Cheers for your help eveyone.

Harold.
