Hi Marcel,
look at the string manipulation functions in the macro language. Here
is an example:
name="c12dmpo_1e5M_cal356_capM1_100Hz_00_5.avi";
calString = getSubstring(name, "_cal", "_");
calValue = NaN; //or whatever to tell you that you could not read the
value
if(calString!="")
calValue=parseInt(calString); //parseFloat if not always an
integer value
print (calValue);
function getSubstring(string, prefix, postfix) {
start=indexOf(name, prefix)+lengthOf(prefix);
end=start+indexOf(substring(name, start), postfix);
if(start>=0&&end>=0)
return substring(name, start, end);
else
return "";
}
You can use the same for prefix="_cap" and with no parseInt for the
cap String.
For the "100 Hz" it is more difficult. If this is always directly
after the '_cap' item, use something like
capIndex = indexOf(name,"_cap");
afterCap = substring(name, capIndex+3);
hzString = getSubstring(afterCap, "_", "Hz");
Otherwise, you have to get IndexOf(name, "Hz_") and run a 'for' loop
from this value to 0, extracting character by character (see
'charCodeAt') and see whether it matches an underscore. Then extract
the substring between these two positions.
Much fun with all the String dissecting!
Michael
