Posted: Fri Nov 07, 2003 8:31 am Post subject: String processing DLL |
|
|
I am working on a new DLL for VDS. It will add quite a few new possibilities for string processing
in VDS and at the same time supplement (or in some cases perhaps rather fix) existing VDS functions, for
instance through computer LOCALE awareness.
Stay tuned...

I'm currently working at a DSU which should give VDS the capability to use the same string-manupulation functions as PHP has.

Could give some overlapping..
DLL will work with VDS 3 and 4 also, though. While DSU will integrate without externals...

Doesn't matter... I'll stop working at my DSU

DLL about ready for beta testing. If anyone's interested please let me know! PM or post here for that..
Suggestions for functions you would like to have are OK as well

I don't know which ones you have already, but could these be included?
- replace (Example: @replace(Hi, Hello, Hi everybody...) -> Hello everybody)
- rpos (Example: @rpos(test,This test is a test) -> 16)
- striphtml
- reverse
- between (Example: @between(14,4,15) -> 14 is between 4 and 15)
- strbetween (Example: @strbetween(<a href=,>,<a href="http://www.vdsworld.com/">) -> http://www.vdsworld.com/
- charsucc and charpred -> 'a' becomes 'b' or 'z'
- Something to replace every instance of parameter1 into parameter2 in a string
I hope you understand this list a bit, but I guess I can't tomorrow...
Btw. if you want me to test your DLL, you can send it to me if you like... _________________ [ Add autocomplete functionality to your VDS IDE windows! ]

Hey Skit
Most are in there already. A couple could be considered. Perhaps you could give the DLL a spin and
give some specific suggestions.
I'll be in touch

some of them are already implemented in VDS, and some aren't usefull at all, but perhaps they could give you some ideas . For more information, see: http://nl3.php.net/manual/en/ref.strings.php

Yeah, like you say: some are already in plain VDS, some are really easy to code in VDS, and some are perhaps a bit
exotic: how 'bout "Convert logical Hebrew text to visual text"
Anyway I'll have a look through the list to see if I can spot something useful.

Hi Dread
The dll works fine
I noticed one thing though.
Code: | INFO @string(DelType,TestSTring132, Alpha) |
Will return the string with only uppercase letters removed.
but if U don't specify anything i.e:
Code: | INFO @string(DelType,TestSTring132) |
then it will remove all the ALPHA characters as expected.
This happens with the example script too. Mostly you misspelt
"alpha" inside the dll or is it something else ?
I am on XP pro
Langauge settings :
US English.
string.dll version
