Title: strings
Post by: _C2_ on November 16, 2012, 11:53:24 AM: checked the tutorials here and there wasn't one... checked easy uo and they were too simple.

how do i separate lines in a string after i event property a multi-line item. id love to just make a string out of the first line only.

is there some way to do it with the $?

Post by: TrailMyx on November 16, 2012, 03:12:53 PM: you can use my split string subs for that.

Then you just use the "$" as the delimiter:

Code: [Select]
set %test_string THIS$IS$A$TEST$ gosub TM_SplitString %test_string $ gosub TM_SubstringCount set %count #RESULT - 1 for %i 0 count { gosub TM_GetIndex %i display OK %i , #SPC , #RESULT } stop

you would do something like this:

event property %itemid
gosub separate_string #property $ ($ is the delimiter in this situation - my sub can handle any character as the delimiter)

%return1 would be the first line of text before the $

Edit:i failed to read trailmyx's post. looks like our subs do the same thing

That was the basis of what I needed to learn. That wasn't in the tutorials that I read. Thank you everyone!

Post by: _C2_ on November 17, 2012, 08:54:05 PM: Yeah, I am psyched so many folks jumped in. I need to learn strings in more depth. i've only used them in basic form. thx again all!
Title: Re: strings
Post by: manwinc on November 17, 2012, 10:52:41 PM: Yeah,

str len (String)
-> sets #Strres to the Length of the String

str Count (String) (Sub String)
-> sets #Strres to the # of Sub Strings in the String ; so if you Did a count of the # of "resist" in The property of Most armor, it would return 5

Str Pos (String) (Sub String) (Index)
-> Sets #Strres to the Numeric Location of the Indexed Sub String.
Str Pos _This_ _ 2 ; Would Find the Location of the Second _ in the String "_This_ "
Str Pos is Usually used in Conjunction with Str Count to determine how many instances or to Increment the Index's

Str Left (String) (Length)
-> Sets #Strres to the Part of the String from 1 to "Length"
Str Left This 2
-> #Strres = Th

Str Right (String) (Length)
-> Sets #Strres to the part of the String from the End in (Length) distance
Str Right This 2
-> #Strres = is

Str Mid (String) (Start) (Length)
-> Sets #Strres to the Part of the string from the Start to Start + Length
Str Right and Str Left become obsolete as you learn to use Str Mid

Str Lower (String)
-> Turns Penguins into llamas. Or Something like that... Honestly Never Used it. I'd Imagine it Forces everything to Lower Case

Str Ins (String) (Sub String) (Start)
-> Inception of a string inside a string.....

Str Del (String) (Start) (Length)
-> Sets #Strres to the Leftover String after you Chop it into Pieces

Those are all the Commands Described in a fairly basic way....

Some Handy Pointers when it comes to handling Property Strings.

#Property isn't the same as Journal. You don't have _ instead of Spaces. Instead you have actual Spaces. So Physical Resist becomes Physical , #Spc , Resist in EUO.

Learn to Use Str Count, Str Pos, Str Mid and you can Pull just about any Data you want out of a string.
