VS 2010 Parsing A String?

Mar 9, 2011

I need to parse a string that consists of fields in quotes, separated by commas. Using Split would work fine, but sometimes one of the fields has a comma in it. ie. "My Company, Inc","USA","12.50","125000"I'm just looking to get the fields into elements in an array. Can someone suggest a way to handle the embedded commas that are sometimes present?

VS 2010 Parsing Concatenated String?

Jun 25, 2011

I am writing a tool that logs stats for a first person shooter game. The game writes its information (including who killed who with which weapon) to a log file, which I read every so many seconds and parse so that I can write that information to a database.I am now having trouble parsing the weapon out of that string of information.

Some additional information is required: a weapon in this game can contain attachments (such as a scope, a grenade launcher, etc). Weapons can have either 1 or 2 attachments. Some weapons however cannot have any attachments at all.

Each log file entry that describes a kill contains a code that describes the weapon that was used. This code is a concatenation of either 3 or 4 parts:

<weapon>_<attachment>_mp
<weapon>_<attachment1>_<attachment2>_mp
where <weapon> is a code that describes a weapon and <attachment> is another code describing the attachment.This should be easy to parse by just splitting along the underscore characters, but there's a few catches:

1. Some attachments are able to kill players as well. Specifically: grenade launchers, flame throwers and underbarrel shotguns. In this case, the attachment is listed before the weapon:

<attachment>_<weapon>_mp Note also that in this case there is always only 1 attachment.

2. The biggest catch: some weapon names have an underscore in them (some even have 3 underscores)! So simply splitting along the underscore won't work in all cases; if the weapon name contains an underscore I'm splitting the name of the weapon..This makes the list of possible combinations a lot longer. The ones I can think of (I think these are all):

Parsing String Each Iteration, Or Parsing Once And Storing?

Mar 16, 2011

I'm creating a vb.net winforms application that will take in user given strings, parse them, and print out labels with variable information. The given string will be used in all the labels, but the variable part of the string will change with each label.

My question is: is it better to parse the strings one time, then store those values in arrays, or to parse the string each time a label is printed? Which will perform better? Which is better practice? What is the proper way to test something like this?

Parsing A String Array?

May 28, 2009

I have a string array (strValues()) that holds a large quantity of character data. I need to parse out characters that follow "*PN" and end with "*". I then need to store this data in a datatable so that I can loop through it afterwards and pull out the unique records to be added to an existing dataset. I've been trying to use basic "IndexOf" to get started but it tells me "Overload resolution failed because no accessible 'IndexOf' accepts this number of arguments". Is there a way to accomplish what I'm trying to do?Sample data: MS50*CF3224205*PNineed/thisdata*SD07JAN10*ED21JAN10

VS 2008 Parsing A String?

Oct 19, 2011

I'm trying to find a way to parse a string which looks like this:

1,394,7,0,0,0,0,0,,0,0,63,85,0,,0,0/2,595,59,8,0,0,0,0,0,,,0,0,,0,8,6,0/3,696,0,0,0,0,,,0,0,,84,0,0/#

So that it only reads the first two digits, then delete everything after that till it reads a "/", read the first two digits and delete everything up to the "/" again.This would result in this:

1,394
2,595
3,696

I don't know how to remove every character after the last of the first two digits up to the first / it reads, can anyone help me with that?How can I parse this code easily?

One of the items I'd like to access as a property of the class is a string array.I can't seem to get the syntax right though.

Parsing And Getting Specific Values From CSV String?

May 20, 2010

I am having a string in CSV format.http:[code].....I can add new values to it by some mechanism. Everything will be same except the new values will have numeric part = 0. Take example I have this exsiting CSV string

1 , abc.txt , 2 , def.doc , 3 , flyaway.txt

Now by some mechanism i added two more files Superman.txt and Spiderman.txt to the existing string. Now it became

1 , abc.txt , 2 , def.doc , 3 , flyaway.txt, 0, Superman.txt, 0 , Spiderman.txt

What i am doing here is that this csv string is paased into SP where its splitted and inserted to db. So for inserting I have to take the files with numeric part 0 only rest will be omiited .Which will be further then converted into CSV string.Array will look like this

str[0]="1"
str[1]="abc.txt"
str[2]="2"[code].....

So at last i want to say my input will be

1 , abc.txt , 2 , def.doc , 3 , flyaway.txt, 0, Superman.txt, 0 , Spiderman.txt

Desired Output:

0, Superman.txt, 0 , Spiderman.txt

Parsing XML Fragment And Extracting Element As String?

Nov 23, 2009

I am using an API (WSUS) that will give me an XML fragment that I need to work with. Essentially, I need to go through the fragment element by element, identify what type of element it is, and then put that element into the datagridview. The goal is to have a column with a human readable interpretation of the element, plus that actual element itself in a hidden column for further processing. So, using the below XML, I want the DGV to have column that says "Begin Or Group" and a hidden column with "<lar:Or>".

I can get an xmltextreader to loop through the elements just fine, but I can't figure out a way to return just the current element in XML. I've tried ReadString, Value, ToString, and a bunch of other stuff but just cannot seem to figure it out.

Here's an example fragment:

<lar:And>
<lar:Or>
<bar:WindowsVersion Comparison="EqualTo" MajorVersion="5" MinorVersion="0" ServicePackMajor="4" ServicePackMinor="0" />

Parsing A Textbox String And Returning Substrings To Multiple Textboxes

Nov 17, 2010

i've done some basic parsing with text files before.

Scenario is i have 4 textboxes String (which contains the string i'm wanting to parse) sub1, sub2, and sub3. so the string is ex. 500000-1-2

- is the char that is the seperator

so the aim here is to get

500000 into sub1
1 into sub2
2 into sub3

the real string i'm wanting to parse is much more complex, but i'm keeping it simple here for a jumping off point so i can figure the rest out.

Parsing - Extract Characters From A Long String And Reformat The Output To CSV By Using Keywords With .net?

Nov 10, 2010

I have a task to resolve, it is regading extracting characters from a long string to the console, the extracted text shall be reformatted and saved into a CSV file. The string comes out of a database.

It looks something like: UNH+RAM6957+ORDERS:D:96A:UN:EGC103'BGM+38G::ZEW+REQEST6957+9'DTM+Z05:0:805'DTM+137:20100930154

The values are seperated by '.I can query the database and display the string on the console, but now I need to extract the Keyword 'ORDERS' for example, and lets say it's following 5 Characters. So the output should look like: ORDERS:D:96A then I need to extract the keyword 'BGM' and its following five characters so the output should look like: BGM+38G:After extracting all the keywords, the result should be comma seperated and look like:

ORDERS:D:96A,BGM+38G: it should be saved into a CSV file automatically.

I tried already:

'Lookup for containing KeyWords
Dim FoundPosition1 = p_EDI.Contains("ORDERS")
Console.WriteLine(FoundPosition1)

Which gives the starting position of the Keyword.I tried to trim the whole thing around the keyword "DTM". The EDI variable holds the entire string from the Database:

Dim FoundPosition2 = EDI
FoundPosition2 = Trim(Mid(EDI, InStr(EDI, "DTM")))
Console.WriteLine(FoundPosition2)

Or should I be using the XmlReader class and one of its methods?is the format of my XML file:
