Hello all.
We’ve previously upgraded our DevExpress component in the Windows GUI, Indicium, DevExpress Report Designer, and we want to inform you about a breaking change in the DevExpress component. Specifically regarding the Concat function.
The DevExpress upgrade is included in our products starting from version 2024.1.13.0 (around April this year).
This Concat function was only available and could only be used inside the DevExpress Report Designer.
Previously, passing a null argument to this function would return an empty string. However, following our recent DevExpress update, this is no longer the case.
The new behavior will not return an empty string when a null value is passed to the Concat function. This change may affect the output of your reports, potentially causing unexpected results if null values are involved.
To ensure your reports continue to function as expected, we recommend reviewing and updating any code that relies on the previous behavior. You can find more information about this change and recommended adjustments in the official DevExpress change article.
We apologize for any inconvenience this change may cause. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our support team.
Best regards,
Product Innovation
