Summary

There is a problem when using the function String.Format with five (5) or more parameters: the function will not work when the string parameter is managed as a variable. Using less parameters will not generate this problem.

To ensure its correct execution, it is necessary to:
- Include the Culture as a first parameter
- Include quotation marks after the variable

Applies to

Automation projects from Bizagi 11.0 or higher.

What you need to do

Below you will find two options when the string parameter is a variable, in this case sMsg or when you use the string directly as a parameter.

1. Use the String.Format method including the culture and quotation marks after the string parameter:

sTemplate = "this {0} is {1} an {2} example {3}.";      
sMsg = System.String.Format(System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, sTemplate + "", "Value1", "Value2", "Value3", "Value4");

2. Use the String.Format method including the culture and the string as a parameter:

sMsg = System.String.Format(System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, "this {0} is {1} an {2} example {3}.", "Value1", "Value2", "Value3", "Value4");

If you follow these instructions carefully the problem should be solved and the function should be working properly in runtime. In case you are warned still as shown below, skip this warning.
