Just wondering if this is possible

Hey guys,

Im trying to learn GS2 now and im making some system that will read a string then spit out some data according to it.

So an example of what i'm trying to do is:

I want to get the information from a particular string but the program doesn't know what strings its going to receive so a predefined array is useless.

PHP Code:

clientr.some_weapon_ 


starts the string and this much I know, I also know that the weapon corresponding to the string ends with the same characters as the string.
So the weapon name could be weapons/bat and the string could be clientr.some_weapon_bat

So to construct the string I need I would do:

PHP Code:

temp.wname="bat";
temp.sname="clientr.some_" @ temp.wname; 


But now the actual problem... how would I tokenize the string to give me the value of client.some_weapon_bat ?

I've tried doing

PHP Code:

temp.wname="bat";
temp.sname="clientr.some_" @ temp.wname;
temp.tokens=temp.sname.tokenize(); 


But that didn't work... So is what i'm trying to do actually possible and if so how?

it is possible, and is done all the time!

you would need to 'convert' the string into an 'object' eg;

PHP Code:

clientr.(@"some_" @ temp.wname); 


to tokenize it... (editing... please hold.)
edit; sorry, can't get my head to work, i guess i'm too tired for that, but i've done it before.

Yep.

I.e:

PHP Code:

function onCreated() {
  temp.w = "sword";
  temp.("example_" @ temp.w) = "a b c d e";
  temp.tokens = temp.("example_" @ temp.w).tokenize();
  echo(temp.tokens);
}
