Hi all, I'm not sure if this is the right mailing list but it is a newbie question and I suppose it is safe to post it here. I am trying to understand xmlrpc and I have loaded the classes that deal with this. What I would like to accomplish is to post to my wordpress blog using xmlrpc but there are no examples regarding this. Can anyone help out? Thanks in advance, Ching

Parsing and splitting file contents
by r00t uk 01 Sep '09

Ok, I am new to smalltalk. I have tried browsing and searching for methods related to parsing and splitting file contents based on a delimiter, but I am not having much success. :( Old google is not helping either so I can only assume that I am missing something "obvious". I am reading a tab delimited file into a string. I want to iterate through this string and split by tab, or any other defined value (, . | # tab, cr, etc.), delimiter into substrings which are assigned to a Collection (Array, Dictionary, Bag, etc.), or instant variables. I was hoping there was going to be something like: Bag := FileStream collect: [:x | split: crlf]. Dictionary := Bag collect: [:x | split: tab]. Does that make any sense? Basically create Bag with contents of FileStream split by crlf and then split Bag elements by tab into key value pairs. Again, I am surprised by the lack of examples demonstrating to newbies how to perform basic operations such as this. I know it is not the smalltalk way of learning, but it does raise the bar for making progress. The language may be easy, but finding which methods to use to solve problems is a bit laborious. Thanks in advance.
