Convert Array of Char to String? [closed]

Question

How do I convert an array of char to a string?

I have a normal array of characters and I want to convert its values to string. How can I do this?

Edit: Originally this question asked about "array of string to string", but the OP accepted an answer that said "array of char, to string".

Answer 1

It seems that perhaps you have text in an array of char. If so then you can do this:

function ArrayToString(const a: array of Char): string;
begin
  if Length(a)>0 then
    SetString(Result, PChar(@a[0]), Length(a))
  else
    Result := '';
end;

On the other hand, maybe you're asking a completely different question.

Answer 2

function ArrayToString(const Data: array of string): string;
var
  SL: TStringList;
  S: string;
begin
  SL := TStringList.Create;
  try
    for S in Data do
      SL.Add(S);
    Result := SL.Text;
  finally
    SL.Free;
  end;
end;

This is how I understand what you are asking. It could be that David's solution is what you want, however. You decide.
