String commands

[Alienhead]

( LUA ) 

I haven't got most of the string commands to work yet.

Even pulled some of the demos straight out of the docs.

 

local string = "Hello, how are you today?"

print(string:GetSize())

 

Trim seems to work, and lower/upper.. but for the others no luck

Always the commands I'm in dire need of too..  lol

Lucky the base lua string commands seem to be ok. 

string.len(a)  for example.

The Ultra string classes are not exposed in Lua. Ultra uses wide strings, which do not work well with Lua strings. However, all command interfaces between C++ and Lua that pass strings convert UTF8 (Lua) to wide strings (C++) and back.

I have added the string methods as functions that can be used like this:

s = "test"
s = Right(s, 1)
s = Trim(s)

I also added Len(s), which is like Ultra's GetSize() method for the string class.

This will be available in the next build.

That will work ! Time to get some parsing done.
