Hello,

I'm using your ScriptMaster plugin (1.6.3), and I have a Java/Groovy problem that I cannot resolve, despite researching it online. Suppose I have the following code:

fruits = apple~orange~banana~~~;

fruitsArray = fruits.split("~");

Apparently, Java discards the trailing empty strings, which means referencing fruitsArray[4] produces an error (which often causes FileMaker to hang), so how I can preserve the trailing empty strings?

Regards,

Sean Mills

Sean, use the version of split that takes two args, and pass in a -1 as the second param. See the documentation here:

String.split(String regex,int limit)

This will return an arry of 6 objects in your example, instead of 3.

Jesse, thanks so much. That worked!

You know, I actually did look at the other version of String.Split, but I simply entered a large number. Didn't know about the -1 parameter.
