C# Split String Is Not Working
======================

Please Help. I wrote a C# program that reads code one line at a time. Each line has data seperated by tabs.

Here is what my C# code is supposed to do. The line is supposed to be split into a string array by using the "Split" string methodIt is supposed to be spit read in text one line at a time and I use the "Split" method to group the line according to the tab character.

But, as this screen shot shows, it does not work. Any idea why?

It may be a syntax problem.

Maybe try something like:

string[] arr = line.Split(new char [] {'\t'});

Go go mkreku, I thought you couldn't code.

Are you sure it's tabs in the string and not spaces ?

It's a matter of being certain what the delimiter should be, t, or n or a symbol. I tend to use a symbol so I can be explicit.

Show us line. All in your editor see if you can set a view of hex for the line string so we can be sure of all the characters.

Works for me. Are you using mono?

You're not still evangelising Python, hell next you'll tell me you think Javascript is awesome.

C++ or fail dude.

Language snobbery is so undergrad. Still though, really should get back practicing my C++ and C#.

Eh, go away. Nobody takes you seriously anyway. Still, you accidentally stumbled upon a grain of wisdom. "C++ or fail" indeed. In this case the OP chose fail.

P.S. Javascript is pretty annoying, but maybe if you try Coffeescript you'll still be a douchebag, but at least you'll be a douchebag using a nice language. What, are you going to tell me people should code interactive websites in C++? lol

And yet it's what Ph.Ds and industry veterans will often spend their time writing papers on.

In this case, Microsoft themselves have rapidly ditched C# in favour of a return C++ for the cases where they were using it (which were cases where they used C++ originally anyway - turns out C# isn't a suitable replacement). This is poignant because Microsoft are the ones who designed C# in the first place, and for this main purpose (to replace C++ internally).

Anybody still using C# in light of this is just unaware of better languages for their needs - C++ and Python for instance, depending on the solution required.

They spend their time sneering at other languages ?

Wonder if the guy fixed his problem though, which was getting this function to work as intended.

[Janmanden]

Lots of ideas here. That's what he asked for. Maybe the reason why the split doesn't work is because those four options are getting along so well, that they just don't want to be split.. Maybe they are currently discussing what ruleset they should use for their next adventure.. I suggest making a check for tabs before trying to split a string based on that. Make a regular expression and check to see if there any tabs in there or possible multiple spaces and apply the split based on what the result is. Could be tabs, could be spaces.. could it be love?

What languages does Obsidian use? Just LUA and C++?

Yeah I know no green text here.

I could equally say to you

ASM or fail dude.

But I am sure that you may lie about knowing ASM fully just like your claim to invent the crate 3.0 technology which is car engine tech, which wasn't invented by a Swedish man, just sayin'

What languages does Obsidian use? Just LUA and C++?

The games that have used Onyx consist of this: The engine is C++. Our tools are a combination of C++ and C# (all of our development is done using Windows machines). And our UI utilizes Actionscript (Flash).

I cannot say exactly what other languages besides C++ the projects before DS3 used but, the primary language of all of our released games has been C++.

[J.Burke]

Alpha protocol was made using Unreal, so we used C++ and unreal script.
Fallout New Vegas was made using Gambryo -- programmers worked almost exclusively in C++ (including tools work), though some XML work was required for UI.
Roby already went into Onyx projects.

Check this one

string str = null;
string[] strArr = null;
int count = 0;
str = "CSharp split test";
char[] splitchar = { ' ' };
strArr = str.Split(splitchar);
for (count = 0; count < = strArr.Length - 1; count++)
{
MessageBox.Show(strArr[count]);
}
