Using a simple parser, extract the point-pairs from a string such as: "-850.5,75.0 958,137.5 958,-262.5 850,325 742,262.6 742,137.5" By using a simple tokenizer/lexer, we can safely catch all errors. And it's much more readable and maintainable than an ugly brute-force method. var parseSvgPoints_index0: Integer parseSvgPoints_index1: Integer parseSvgPoints_string: String parseSvgPoints_strlen: Integer parseSvgPoints_lexeme: String Function ParseSvgPoints(s: String) : Boolean Var i: Integer c: String token: Integer active: Integer point1, point2: Real Begin InitSvgPointsToken(s) active = -1 Repeat token = GetNextSvgPointsToken() Case token of 1: // Comma Case active of -1: SvgError("Unexpected comma in ParseSvgPoints") 1: active=2 2: SvgError("Unexpected comma in ParseSvgPoints") EndCase 2: // Float Case active of -1: active = 1; point1 = ToReal(parseSvgPoints_lexeme) 1: SvgError("Unexpected float in ParseSvgPoints") 2: active=-1; point2 = ToReal(parseSvgPoints_lexeme); MessageBox("Points: "+point1+", "+point2) // Do things with your points here!
