Behaviour of String.split() [message #468410] Wed, 05 August 2009 09:15 Go to previous message

Behaviour of the operation split on the class String is curious. The
following output is generated from a simple model transformation:

This input (within my ETL file):
'1234.5678'.println();
'1234.5678'.split('.').println();
'1234-5678'.println();
'1234-5678'.split('-').println();

Provides this output (in the console window):
main:
[epsilon.etl - IndeFile2NetworkInitialisationDataCatalogue.etl] Running
ETL file
[epsilon.etl - IndeFile2NetworkInitialisationDataCatalogue.etl] 1234.5678
[epsilon.etl - IndeFile2NetworkInitialisationDataCatalogue.etl] Sequence {}
[epsilon.etl - IndeFile2NetworkInitialisationDataCatalogue.etl] 1234-5678
[epsilon.etl - IndeFile2NetworkInitialisationDataCatalogue.etl] Sequence
{1234, 5678}
[epsilon.etl - IndeFile2NetworkInitialisationDataCatalogue.etl]
Completed ETL file
BUILD SUCCESSFUL

There appears to be something odd with the behaviour of the split()
operation when the string delimiter is the point character '.', should I
be calling this operation differently?

Best Wishes
Chris
