Summary
Function: list llParseString2List( string src, list separators, list spacers );| 0.0 | Forced Delay |
| 10.0 | Energy |
Returns a list that is src broken into a list, discarding separators, keeping spacers, discards any null values generated.
| • string | src | – | source string | |
| • list | separators | – | separators to be discarded | |
| • list | spacers | – | spacers to be kept |
separators and spacers must be lists of strings, maximum of 8 each.
Caveats
- To avoid contradiction, every string of the spacers list of strings to keep must not exist in the separators list of strings to discard.
- Every element in the list will be a string, no matter what you think it should be. Cast the results of llList2String to get what you want.
- integer my_int = (integer)llList2String(my_list, i);
- llList2String is used here, as llList2Integer can only handle integers in simple notation, ie. will not handle hexadecimal integers.
Examples
default
{
state_entry()
{
// This will say:
// <A><crazy><fox><.><Saw><the><moon><.><.>
string my_string = "A crazy fox. Saw the moon..";
list my_list = llParseString2List(my_string,[" "],["."]);
llOwnerSay("<" + llDumpList2String(my_list,"><") + ">");
// This will say:
// <A><crazy><fox><.><><><Saw><the><moon><.><><.><>
my_list = llParseStringKeepNulls(my_string,[" "],["."]);
llOwnerSay("<" + llDumpList2String(my_list,"><") + ">");
}
}
Useful Snippets
| • | ParseString2List | – | Functions the same as llParseString2List and llParseStringKeepNulls but without limitations. |
| • | separateWords | – | Functions the same as llParseString2List but without limitations, also readably correct at a glance. |
