| |
| <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td> |
| |
| <i>Getfields</i> places into the array <i>args</i> pointers to the first <i>maxargs</i> |
| fields of the null terminated UTF string <i>str</i>. Delimiters between |
| these fields are set to null. |
| <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table> |
| |
| Fields are substrings of <i>str</i> whose definition depends on the value |
| of <i>multiflag.</i> If <i>multiflag</i> is zero, adjacent fields are separated |
| by exactly one delimiter. For example<br> |
| |
| <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td> |
| |
| |
| <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td> |
| |
| <tt><font size=+1>getfields("#alice#bob##charles###", arg, 3, 0, "#");<br> |
| </font></tt> |
| </table> |
| |
| </table> |
| yields three substrings: null-string , <tt><font size=+1>alice</font></tt>, and <tt><font size=+1>bob##charles###</font></tt>. |
| If the <i>multiflag</i> argument is not zero, a field is a non-empty |
| string of non-delimiters. For example<br> |
| |
| <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td> |
| |
| |
| <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td> |
| |
| <tt><font size=+1>getfields("#alice#bob##charles###", arg, 3, 1, "#");<br> |
| </font></tt> |
| </table> |
| |
| </table> |
| yields the three substrings: <tt><font size=+1>alice</font></tt>, <tt><font size=+1>bob</font></tt>, and <tt><font size=+1>charles###</font></tt>. |
| <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table> |
| |
| Getfields returns the number of fields pointed to. |
| <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table> |
| |
| <i>Gettokens</i> is the same as <i>getfields</i> with <i>multiflag</i> non-zero, except |
| that fields may be quoted using single quotes, in the manner of |
| <a href="../man1/rc.html"><i>rc</i>(1)</a>. See <a href="../man3/quote.html"><i>quote</i>(3)</a> for related quote-handling software. |
| <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table> |
| |
| <i>Tokenize</i> is <i>gettokens</i> with <i>delims</i> set to <tt><font size=+1>"\t\r\n "</font></tt>.<br> |
