How to loop for each line of a multi-line string

Hi Stephane,



Basically, you need to split the string by the new line character and then iterate through individual items in the resulting array. For example:

var arr = str.split("\r\n");

for (var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++)

{

  // Do something with arr

}

You can also loop through the text using TestComplete's aqString.GetListItem object if you set aqString.ListSeparator to the new line character ("\r\n" in JScript, vbNewLine constant in VBScript or #13#10 in DelphiScript). Have a look at examples in the linked topics.





By the way, your file looks similar to an INI file, only with a non-standard separator for name-value pairs.

If you could modify your file into:



; NB: The Root section is mandatory

[Root]



[Control1]

Caption='hello'

With=12

Height=22



[Control333]

Caption='hello'

With=12

Height=22



you'd be able to access the sections and name-value pairs using TestComplete's Storages.INI API, instead of manually parsing the file.
