string.
functionimplementedavailable in: camelot
Extract substrings by matching against a pattern. match [, match2, ...] = string.match(string, pattern[, initpos]) match1[, match2, ...] = strmatch(string, pattern[, initpos])
The client has this function, but Blizzard's documentation leaves it out, so its parameters and results aren't known.
Parameters
| name | type | description |
|---|---|---|
string | string | The string to examine. |
pattern | string | The pattern to search for within string. This pattern is similar to Unix regular expressions, but is not the same -- see Lua Pattern matching for more details. |
initpos | number | Index of the character within string to begin searching. As is usual for Lua string functions, 1 refers to the first character of the string, 2 to the second, etc. -1 refers to the last character of the string, -2 to the second last, etc. If this argument is omitted, it defaults to 1; i.e., the search begins at the beginning of string. |
