T3D 1.1 Beta 3 - getWords returning incorrectly - DUPLICATE

by Aloshi · in Torque 3D Professional · 05/01/2011 (1:48 pm) · 2 replies

Build: T3D 1.1 Beta 3 Pro.

Platform: Windows 7, 64 bit.

Target: The function getWords (and by extension StringUnit::getUnits, I suppose).

Issues: getWords seems to be leaving off the last two characters when the end index is the end of the string. Examples:
getWords("0 1 2 3 4 5 6", 3, 6);
Will return: "3 4 5".
getWords("0.0 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 5.0 6.0", 3, 6);
Will return: "3.0 4.0 5.0 6".

This problem only occurs when using getWords through the end of the string. For example,
getWords("0.0 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 5.0 6.0", 3, 5);
Will return: "3.0 4.0 5.0". It works fine.

Steps to repeat: Echo these examples.

Edit: Seems this has already been reported elsewhere (I searched but found nothing) and is fixed in the 1.1 Preview. Whoops.

This function behaves normally on 1.1 Preview, as far as I can see, so I guess the issue has already been addressed?

Already reported and there's a bugfix in the 1.1 beta3 forums ... somewhere.
