Re: [chuck-users] anybody still use this thing?

that's the issue. I would slowly go through the string and parse down every command, if I knew how to grab numbers and things between one command and the next. For example, c8.c8 On 9/7/2016 7:44 PM, Spencer Salazar wrote: I dont think you can use regex to match a whole expression like that but you can use it to pick off bits and pieces. Just make a regex that matches all of the possible commands + options and run that through, advancing the string position each time. Eg "o4l8cdefg" => string code; string matches[0]; "((o)([0-9]+)|([abcdefg])(1|2|4|8|16)?|(l)([0-9]+))" => string pattern; for(0 => int i; i < code.length(); ) { if(RegEx.match(pattern, code.substring(i), matches)) { if(matches[2] == "o") <<< "octave:", matches[3] >>>; else if(matches[4] == "a") <<< "a" >>>; // etc. matches[0].length() +=> i; } else { <<< "invalid code" >>>; break; } } I dont know anything about MML so I dont know what the final regex would look like. Another option is to just go through the string iteratively and look at each character one at a time. If whitespace is undesirable StringTokenizer might be hurting more than helping here. for(0 => int i; i < code.length(); ) { int c = code.charAt(i); if(c == 'o') { // look for number } else if(c == 'a' || c == 'b' || ... ) { // see if number follows } } spencer On Tue, Sep 6, 2016 at 6:32 PM, Colton Hill mailto:colton-hill2014@hotmail.com> wrote: I also want to make sure I have a customizable play function that will handle my playing. Here's the code I've been using for my current mml parser in chuck, actually does take a code string and a play function, and operates well. Only issue is including doesn't work... So have a test.

I know regular expressions syntax, but I really don't know how I would manage to make an mml parser that actually works. Turn o4l8cdefg into octave 4, length 8, and c d e f g notes with an 8th note length since no length is specified. Then there's c4., which is c4^c8... Just bla… There are free MML parsers in C out there. Linking to ChucK, which is written in C++, might be a way.
