Split a string into a container in Microsoft Dynamics 365

Some times when developing we encounter some strings of which we only need a segment of the string, let’s say for example the addresses on AX that are formed by several lines.

So When you run in the need to separate a String in several parts, you can use the method that we are creating in this post, this function will take 3 parameters:

• String
• Delimiter
• Index

This methods will require some variable to be declared previously:

Declare Variables:

        List _list = new List(Types::String); 

        container con;

        ListIterator iterator;

        str String;

        ;

        String = "Raji-Jones-Leena-Mangomani";

        _list = Global::strSplit(String,"-");

        iterator =new ListIterator(_list);

        while (iterator.more())

        {

            con += iterator.value();

            iterator.next();

        }

Now we have a populated container and,  using the “conPeek” standard function we can retrieve the elements from the container by the index.               

        

     info(conPeek(con,conLen(con)));// i want to print last value of container so i use conLen(con)     

output:
