I see at least two alternatives:
- Stream
- VBRegex
If you have a single separator string, then Stream already has the upToAll: method (leave stream positioned before occurence...)
| testString sep subStrings inputStream |
testString := 'split that string in this language'.
sep := 'th'.
subStrings := Array new writeStream.
inputStream := testString readStream.
[inputStream atEnd]
whileFalse: [
subStrings nextPut: (inputStream upToAll: sep).
inputStream throughAll: sep].
^subStrings contents
VBRegex is more powerfull of course (it can match several different separators at once).
I let you inquire about it.
