Provides services for working with strings.
Syntax
Result = SRP_String(Service, Param1, ..., ParamN)
Returns
The meaning of the return value depends on the service.
Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Service | The action to apply to the given string. Required. |
| Param1 - ParamN | Service parameters. See specific service for details. |
Remarks
The SRP_String method provides a variety of operations that can help a developer with specific operations that are often cumbersome to accomplish in BASIC+ directly. This method is expected to increase its menu of services over time.
Service
Much like the Utility function in OpenInsight, the SRP_String function provides multiple services which are identified in the Service parameter. The services are:
| Service | Description |
|---|---|
| Compare | Compares two variables as strings. See also EQ, EQC, NE, NEC, LT, LTC, LE, LEC, GT, GTC, GE, and GEC. (Added in 4.2.6) |
| DetokenizeCode | Converts an array of BASIC+ tokens into a string of BASIC+ code that can be compiled. |
| GetHeight | Calculates the height a word-wrapped string would need given a certain font and width limit. |
| GetWidth | Calculates the width a string would need given a certain font. |
| TokenizeCode | Parses a string containing BASIC+ into an array of discrete BASIC+ tokens. |
| Trim | A more advanced trim operation for OI strings. |
