Description
- Description:
- Converts given, formatted as simple array, String into a valid Array. Simple array is array consisting of Numbers, Strings, Booleans and Arrays of all of the above. This command is almost 4× faster than similar uncached call compile method. And because call compile is not required, it is also more secure and primarily intended for use with callExtension to parse the String output into Array.
- Groups:
- StringsArrays
Syntax
- Syntax:
- parseSimpleArray stringArray
- Parameters:
- stringArray: String - string formatted as simple array
- Return Value:
- Array - valid array
Examples
- Example 1:
- Example 2:
- Example 3:
- _bool = true; _num = 123.45; _str = "ok"; _arr = [1, false, "cool"]; _res = parseSimpleArray format ["[%1,%2,%3,%4]", _bool, _num, str _str, str _arr]; // note how _bool and _num do not need str, however if used anyway, the result in this case would be identical hint str _res; // returns [true,123.45,"ok",[1,false,"cool"]]
