DupeString

Creates and concatenates N copies of a string.

Declaration

Source position: strutils.pp line 83

function DupeString(

  const AText: string;

  ACount: Integer

):string;

Arguments

AText

  

String to duplicate.

ACount

  

Number of copies to create.

Function result

Copies of the original string.

Description

DupeString returns a string consisting of ACount concatenations of AText. Thus

DupeString('1234567890',3);

will produce a string

'123456789012345678901234567890'

If aCount<=0 then the result is an empty string.

Errors

If you specify a too large aCount (so the resulting string would require more memory than allowed on your system) then an EOutOfMemory exception can be raised.
