findTokens: vs explode:

Ron Teitelbaum puso en su mail :

Hi all,
 
Earlier we discussed a replacement for my explode method.  findTokens: was suggested but
 
'       version         [0]  EXPLICIT Version DEFAULT v1,' findTokens: ‘EXPLICIT’  =
an OrderedCollection('       version         [0]  ' ' Version D' 'FAU' ' v1,')
 
but
 
'       version         [0]  EXPLICIT Version DEFAULT v1,' explode: ‘EXPLICIT’ =
an OrderedCollection('       version         [0]  ' ' Version DEFAULT v1,')
 
I can see that findTokens: removes all instances of each character.  Which is not what I’m looking for.
 
Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Hope this helps, sure someone could do better

In String, accesing category

explode: aString
    | pos tokens |
    tokens := OrderedCollection new.
    pos := self findString: aString startingAt: 1.
    tokens
        add: (self copyFrom: 1 to: pos - 1).
    pos := pos + aString size.
    tokens
        add: (self copyFrom: pos to: self size).
    ^ tokens

'       version         [0]  EXPLICIT Version DEFAULT v1,' explode: 'EXPLICIT' an OrderedCollection('       version         [0]  ' ' Version DEFAULT v1,')

I note what copy from yours and paste again in Squeak the delimiters of EXPLICIT was different to single quote

What about:

'¾¾¾¾¾¾¾ version¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾ [0]¾ EXPLICIT Version DEFAULT v1,'
findBetweenSubStrs: {'EXPLICIT'}

an OrderedCollection('¾¾¾¾¾¾¾ version¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾ [0]¾ ' ' Version DEFAULT
v1,')
