SplitString()
Summary
Divides a string into pieces based on the position of vertical bars (|) in that string.
Syntax
pieces = SplitString(string s)
| Argument | Contents |
|---|---|
| s | The string that is split |
Returns
An array of pieces of the string, or null if s is null.
Notes
-
SplitString can be used to parse the results of GetEditorView(), GetWindows() , and many other functions.
-
If s contains no vertical bars, then the return value is an array of one string.
-
SplitString() does not include the vertical bars in the strings that make up the returned array.
-
If s contains two consecutive vertical bars, the returned array contains a null in the corresponding position.

subs = SplitString("Map|My First Map")
// returns {"Map", "My First Map"}See Also
