StringBuilder GetNth

Demonstrates the GetNth method. Lua

local chilkat = require("chilkat")

-- The GetNth method is handy for getting parts from delimited strings.
-- For example:

local sb = chilkat.StringBuilder.new()
sb:append("red,blue,\"green,purple\",,yellow")

local delimiterChar = ","
local exceptDoubleQuoted = true
local exceptEscaped = true

-- Prints "[red]"
print("[" .. sb:get_nth(0, delimiterChar, exceptDoubleQuoted, exceptEscaped) .. "]")

-- Prints "[blue]"
print("[" .. sb:get_nth(1, delimiterChar, exceptDoubleQuoted, exceptEscaped) .. "]")

-- Prints "[green,purple]"
print("[" .. sb:get_nth(2, delimiterChar, exceptDoubleQuoted, exceptEscaped) .. "]")

-- Prints "[]"
print("[" .. sb:get_nth(3, delimiterChar, exceptDoubleQuoted, exceptEscaped) .. "]")

-- Prints "[yellow]"
print("[" .. sb:get_nth(4, delimiterChar, exceptDoubleQuoted, exceptEscaped) .. "]")

-- Prints "[]"
print("[" .. sb:get_nth(5, delimiterChar, exceptDoubleQuoted, exceptEscaped) .. "]")
