$str.split

$str.split Splits a string to an array
Usage
<array> $str.split(<separator:string>,<data:string>[,<flags:string>[,<maxfields:integer>]])
Description
Splits the <data> string by <separator> and returns an array of substrings. <flags> may be a combination of the characters s, w, r and n. If s is specified, <separator> matching is case sensitive, otherwise it is case insensitive. If w is specified, <separator> is treated as a wildcard-type regular expression (with * and ? wildcards). If r is specified, <separator> is treated as a extended-type regular expression (with character classes, special escapes etc.). If both w and r are specified, w takes precedence. If neither w and r are specified <separator> is treated as a simple string to be matched. If n is specified then any resulting empty fields are discarded. If <maxfield> is specified, then at most <maxfields> items are returned in the array (i.e. the last item may be not completely split).
Examples
# Split the fields %test[] = $str.split(!,"Field0!Field1!Field2!Field3!!Field5") echo %test[] %i = 0 while(%i < %test[]#) { echo "Field %i: %test[%i]" %i++; }
Regexp splitting:
%Test[] = $str.split("[ ]*[0-9][0-9]*-","AllOfThem: 1-Balboy 2-Pragma 3-Iakkolo 4-Crocodile",r) echo %Test[] %Test[] = $str.split("Y*H","hihiYeaHhohohoyeahYepYEAHhi",sw) echo %Test[]
If used outside of an array context, a comma-separated list of substrings is returned:
echo $str.split("[ ]*","Condense spaces and change all it in commas",r)
