File parsing in VB.net?

Name: Anonymous 2006-05-02 19:13

Anyone had any success in doing this?

And I can't use C#; I don't have it.

It's not like you can't get it.

As of two or three weeks ago, that became completely free.

You mean 'permanently free'; it already was completely free (for a limited time, but copies you got in that time were completely free) but now it will always be free.

Slurp the file into a string, then use VB's broken regex syntax to mangle it. What's the big deal?

Because you're not using XML, a dozen unnecessary OO patterns and huge gobs of configuration!!!!!! Oh sorry, thought this was Java

Oh, it's not XML? Not even OO? Your manager won't like it :(

Yeah, that's what I meant. I feel ripped off because I purchased VS2k5 Standard. I don't do J# (which is now free by itself), but I do C# (free) and C++ (with win32; now free). All I practically paid for was MFC and ATL (which suck).

uhh... thanks. Sweet.

But... free? Alright, what's the catch? Lack of the IDE that the full Studio has? Missing functions that are only in the full version? What am I missing here?

haha, this is a demo... feh. Fucking limited version

Not a demo. It's only missing a few pieces that the full enterprise version has. It will certainly do what >>1 needs it to do, hell one of the groups they specifically target on the web site is students.

You can design apps, build them, distribute them. Gratis.

I believe their strategy with the stand-alone express versions is "Hook 'em whilie they're young."

Interesting. Gonna give it a shot.

...I should have mentioned, what I'm actually trying to do here is parse a large number of log files for unreal tournament 2004, not just accept new ones.

Anyone have any idea how this could be done?

Name: Anonymous 2006-05-04 11:48

>>17
Yeah, perl.

>>17 as demonstrated by >>18; you're not going to get a serious answer here, you might try looking around the msdn forums instead.

Here's the link to the visual basic language forum:

Perl may suck and be insane, but it's quite capable for parsing. And I don't think Microsoft has anything approaching Perl's parsing capabilities.

Name: Anonymous 2006-05-04 19:04 (sage)

>>9 gave the correct answer to >>1, thread is over. .NET has Perl-compatible regexps. (Not the actual PCRE lib mind you, but a decent one nonetheless.)

I'm sure you're right, and I'd have no real beef suggesting perl or anything else if it was a general question ('hey guyz, I have to do this task, whats the best way to do it?').

But when someone comes on and says "hey, I'm using LanguageX, and I need to do TaskY, anyone know how?", it's stupid to say "Yes, use LanguageZ" when the true answer is "I dunno, lol".

a) Use the most appropriate language for the task.
b) "how do I parsed web" is not a specific question with a specific answer; you can't just say "oh you call the parse() function". You write your own parser using the string processing operations your language provides. VB isn't terrible for this, but Perl has a sweet spot for text processing.

The op asked how to this on VB not perl

Name: Anonymous 2006-05-05 5:31

Someone mentioned that .NET has perl regexes [troll]so why not suggest reading up on them and using the VB.NET laguage (which the OP is using) to interact with them?[/troll]

Is it so hard to understand why someone would recommend that you don't ruin your life by using VB?

I don't know that VB would exactly 'ruin' someone's life. That sounds more like a job for FORTRAN to me.
