strsplit()

Synopsis

dyn_string strsplit(string line, string/char delim);

Parameters

Return value

List of substrings. The number of elements in the list depends on the number delimiters found.

Errors

missing or incorrect arguments

Description

Splits the string line into a list <dyn_string> of substrings. line is split at all occurrences of a delimiter contained in the string delim. These delimiters in line are lost and no longer occur in the <dyn_string> list of substrings. If line contains n delimiters, <dyn_string> will contain n+1 substrings. If the final delimiter in line is also the last character in the string, <dyn_string> only contains n substrings and the last (empty) substring is ignored.

Example

main()
{
  string line="This is a test";
  dyn_string split;
  split=strsplit(line, " ");
  // The result is
  DebugN("Part 1= ", split[1]); // This
  DebugN("Part 2= ", split[2]); // is
  DebugN("Part 3= ", split[3]); // a
  DebugN("Part 4= ", split[4]); // test
}
