SplitString()

Summary

Divides a string into pieces based on the position of vertical bars (|) in that string.

Syntax

pieces = SplitString(string s)

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.

Example

subs = SplitString("Map|My First Map")

// returns {"Map", "My First Map"}
