leading zero's being stripped

STRING7 xx:=' '+'2'+' '+'3'+'4'+' ';

Output(' 2 34 ');

OUTPUT is :

jtaylor178,

This appears to be a cosmetic issue only in the ECL Watch results page.

In my testing, the results of these two queries are correctly displayed in the ECL IDE, but leading zeroes are missing in the ECL Watch display. IOW, the actual result value is correct but the display seems to automatically strip the leading spaces. This is probably an artifact of the difference between the way web pages and Windows programs display data.

Please submit a JIRA ticket for this issue.

HTH,

Richard
