Line continuation characters in JavaScript
javascript
Solution
If I properly understood your question:
var statement = con.createStatement('select * from t where '
+ '(t.a1 = 0 and t.a2 >=-1) '
+ 'order by a3 desc limit 1');
For readability, it is fine to align `+` operator on each row: Anyway, unless you're using Ecmascript 2015, avoid to split a multiline string with `\`, because:
- It's not standard JavaScript
- A whitespace after that character could generate a parsing error
Problem
What is the best practice for line continuation in JavaScript? I know that you can use `\` for strings. But how would you split the following code? ``` var statement = con.createStatement("select * from t where (t.a1 = 0 and t.a2 >=-1) order by a3 desc limit 1"); ```
