Works as expected with PB 5.10:
Code: Select all
str$ = "1" + 2
Debug str$ ; Output is "12", great! :)
...should work as well as the compiler
knows that we are working with a string:
Code: Select all
str$ = 1 + "2"
Debug str$ ; Output should be "12"

Would also be fine to allow to set user defined casts, like {string}, {integer}, {double} etc.
Code: Select all
s.s="2"
debug {integer} Val( {string} 1 + "." + s ) / 3

...well, that's not part of
my feature request though.

and the same for other types like:
Code: Select all
value.i = 1 + "2"
Debug value ; Output should be 3
value.i = "1" + 2
Debug value ; Output should be 3
