Re: RFE for %SPLIT() %BIF

Ah, I was thinking CSV could be a use.

Seems like something you could easily write yourself and add to your ILE
function toolset.

I wrote %scanrpl years before IBM did out of necessity. But now I use
theirs as I update things as I'm sure it's faster than mine.. :)

Also, Nathan's idea is also a good one as far as the structure of the BIF.

All these BIF ideas would be a great ILE/RPG open source project for those
so inclined. I don't know if I'd rely on IBM for everything. They
normally do eventually come around and add things that are popular, as
shown over the years.

Rather than:

myArray = %SPLIT(myString : MY_SEPARATOR);

I might suggest that %split() return the number of elements of a
varying-dimension array (myArray), which would be passed as a parameter.
For example:

myElements = %split(myString : MY_SEPARATOR : myArray);
