Split string function?

[Croton]

Is there a split string function? Meaning, if I take an item name with spaces, is there a way to break it into an array for every word?

I figure I could do it using the "FindSubString" function, to find the location of the space, then break the word apart before that, then do another FindSubString starting at the spot after the last space, but I was hoping there was an easier way.


Thanks,

Gave the Lexicon a quick look and there doesn't appear to be any BioWare functions doing what you want.

Thanks as always Psi. I ended up just doing it the hard way with FindSubString, GetSubstring, and GetStringLength

The proper one is ParseString.

Not a default function but here's a definition.

Code: Select all

#include "nw_o0_itemmaker"

int ParseString(string sString, string sSeperator, string sArray)
{
    int iMarker = -1;
    int iIndex = 0;
    int iCount = 1;
    string sLeft = "";
    iMarker = FindSubString(sString, sSeperator);
    while (iMarker != -1)
    {
        sLeft = GetStringLeft(sString, iMarker);
        sString = GetStringRight(sString, GetStringLength(sString) - iMarker - 1);
        SetLocalArrayString(OBJECT_SELF, sArray, iIndex, sLeft);
        iIndex++;
        iCount++;
        iMarker = FindSubString(sString, sSeperator);
    }
    SetLocalArrayString(OBJECT_SELF, sArray, iIndex, sString);
    return iCount;
}

Thanks Nob, thanks Psi!
