RegExMatch help Topic is solved

[XMCQCX]

Hi,

I'm trying to match the choice of a pipe-delimited list of choices of a ComboBox store in an INI file.

Code: Select all

Apple|Orange|Cherry||Kiwi

Code: Select all

Apple||Orange|Cherry|Kiwi

How to get Cherry or Apple in these strings.

Code: Select all

(\^|\|)(.*)\|\|

I tried this one and a lot of things without success. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks

Code: Select all

For each, list in ["Apple|Orange|Cherry||Kiwi", "Apple||Orange|Cherry|Kiwi"] {
 RegExMatch(list, "([^|]+)\|\|", m)
 MsgBox, 64, Choice, %m1%
}

Or:

Code: Select all

data := "
(
Apple|Orange|Cherry||Kiwi
Apple||Orange|Cherry|Kiwi
)"

For k, v in StrSplit(data, "`n")
	MsgBox, % (m, RegExMatch(v, "\w+(?=\|\|)", m))

Thanks a lot, mikeyww. Where I can find a list of the Built-in Variables for the for-loop command, each, LIST; each, LINE. I have never seen that in the documentation.

It's because they are not built in. You can use whatever variables you want for the key & value. I used each for the key, and list for the value. Sofista used k for the key, and v for the value.
