Description
- Description:
- Converts given, formatted as simple array, String into a valid Array. Simple array is array consisting of Numbers, Strings, Booleans and Arrays of all of the above. For example: [1,"2",true,[4,"five",false]]. The string representation of this array compatible with parseSimpleArray will be "[1,""2"",true,[4,""five"",false]]" accordingly. This command is almost 4x faster than similar uncached call compile method. And because call compile is not required, it is also more secure and primarily intended for use with callExtension to parse the String output into Array.
Since Arma 3 v1.96 the command will tolerate extra spaces and supports single quotes. The only recognised keywords (case insensitive) are:
- true - translates into true
- false - translates into false
- nil - translates into nil
- null - translates into nil
- <null> - translates into nil
- any - translates into nil
- Groups:
- StringsArrays
Syntax
- Syntax:
- parseSimpleArray stringArray
- Parameters:
