String Max Length?

[ranxbar]

Hi there,

I'm using AS 3.0 (Flex 3.0.2) and writing some code that pulls data from access file via webservice. I was wondering what is the maximum size (string length) of a "string" type var? (how many Chars can be in one "String")?

The pulled text from the access file is memo type field.

Thanx :p

Technically, it should be 0x7FFFFFFF characters, but, practically, I never checked, try concatenating strings and trace the resulting length in a loop, when you see the wrong result you'll know you found it ;)

That's what I thought. Thanks! :)
