Re: Function to split a string of words into an array of those words?

There was a good discussion on this in 2004 starting with

http://archive.midrange.com/rpg400-l/200408/msg00367.html
It has a nice bit of code by Scott Klement to accomplish this better than the notorious strtok C function.
Or take the hint from there to use the SCAN opcode or %scan BIF and walk the resulting array.

Hi all,



Is there a function (java, c, etc) that can be used in an rpgle program that
would work like the split() function in VB?



Thanks.
