PathToStr(sPath) "^" What is the Caret doing?

I have inherited some Citect code and there is a problem with it...

There is some reports on a report server that is triggered by cicode and there is "a problem" that is causing some kind of crash in the report server that is very elusive to discover. I'm turning over the smallest pebbles now, I'm not the first engineer to be asked to fix this one...

I am not so familiar with Citect and I am trying to understand the syntax, as in some locations a caret is used in strings and not in others...

PathToStr("^"\\PCName\Data\_Mill\DailyReport Yesterday.txt^"");

is used in the code and

PathToStr("[data]:test.txt");

is used in the help file...

What are the carets doing???

  • Thanks, This really helps, the project has been transferred through multiple versions of citect and there's some things that are inconsistently used, good to know pathtostr is not doing anything too exciting in the background...
