I have a helper class pulling a string from an XML file. That string is a file path (so it has backslashes in it). I need to use that string as it is... How can I use it like I would with the literal command?
Instead of this:
string filePath = @"C:\somepath\file.txt";
I want to do this:
string filePath = @helper.getFilePath(); //getFilePath returns a string
This isn't how I am actually using it; it is just to make what I mean a little clearer. Is there some sort of .ToLiteral() or something?

A string literal can be created by writing a text(a group of Characters ) surrounded by the single(”), double(“”), or triple quotes. By using triple quotes we can write multi-line strings or display in the desired way.
A "string literal" is a sequence of characters from the source character set enclosed in double quotation marks (" "). String literals are used to represent a sequence of characters which, taken together, form a null-terminated string. You must always prefix wide-string literals with the letter L.
Template literals are literals delimited with backtick ( ` ) characters, allowing for multi-line strings, string interpolation with embedded expressions, and special constructs called tagged templates.
I don't think you have to worry about it if you already have the value. The @ operator is for when you're specifying the string (like in your first code snippet).
What are you attempting to do with the path string that isn't working?
