String Business in SKILL

nimoster

Hi Guys

I have some problems processing strings in SKILL. Basically I want to break a string into a list of substrings using "!" as delimiter. I found out that the "parseString"-command will do the job. But if one property is missing in the string, the parseString-command just ignores it. I better give you an example:

My string looks like that: "C419!100n!C0603!Murata!PartNo123"

In this case partseString works perfectly and puts each property in a own list field. But if e.g. the manufacturer property is not present and the string looks like this "C419!100n!C0603!!PartNo123" the parseString command interprets the "!!" as one delimiter. In this case I would have expected the funktion to generate a field with an empty string. But it doesn't, it just ignores it :-( So depending on the database entries I get lists with varying length which makes postprocessing more complicated.

Does anybody of you have an idea of a better solution or a workaround?

Thanks,
Martin

    Two years ago, I thought to myself, "How wonderful and fascinating it is to be a student." But, sadly, that is not the case; I am pursuing a degree in civil engineering and rarely have free time, but I do like to unwind now and again. That's why I started looking at https://onlinefreelancejobs.net/civil-engineering-job/ these individuals for help. I now work here because I have all of the requirements, a flexible schedule, and the ability to work from anywhere. They come highly recommended from me.
