    Hi ALL,

    I'm having a very strange behaviour of my QString object. Here my code:
    @
    //the first line.
    QString s;
    s= "%1 %2 %3 %4";
    s.arg("a").arg("3").arg("0").arg("0");
    qDebug() << s.toAscii();

    //the second line.
    QString str;
    str = "%1 %2";
    str.arg("", "Hello");
    qDebug() << str.toAscii();
    @

    The strange is that even though I was waiting for the “3 3 0 0” as answer for the first line and, “ Hello” for the second line in the debug window; I’m receiving “%1 %2 %3 %4” as result of the first line and “%1 %2” as result for the second one. Why I’m having this behaviour? Where is my mistake? behaviour? Where is my mistake?

      QString::arg() returns copy of string with place marker(s) replaced.
      You are printing original string.

        I'm sorry but I didn't understand!

        I'm copy the sample got from the QString documentation, here the "link":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qstring.html#arg-2http://. So, please, could you make a sample?

          Ok...
          I understood!

          It is simple to do this (just for the first line):

          @
          QString s, msg;
          s= "%1 %2 %3 %4";
          msg=s.arg("a").arg("3").arg("0").arg("0");
          qDebug() << msg;
          @
