String Formatting

[Ohad]

Hello,

I have a const string, who looks something like this:

const str = "abc {name: ohad phone: xxxxxx} {0} {1} {2}";

and i'd like to do this:

string a = string.Format(str, 1, 2, 3);

It's not working. I guess that the problem is that the c#'s Format method
looks at the string between the first {} like it is a parameter, like {0}
{1} {2}.
How can I solve it? I was working so hard to solve this problem, and
nothing.

please cc to my mailbox: (e-mail address removed)

Thanks a lot,
Ohad Asor.

You must escape the brackets by using two brackets instead of one when
they're not part of an format expression. Like this:
const str = "abc {{name: ohad phone: xxxxxx}} {0} {1} {2}";

Hi

const str = "abc {name: ohad phone: xxxxxx} {0} {1} {2}";

read MSDN
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/cpguide/html/cpconcompositeformatting.asp

"you must specify two opening braces ("{{") in the fixed text to display one opening brace ("{"),
and specify two closing braces ("}}") "
