Hi,
I'm trying to parse strings which are C function names from unit tests. The strings are like so:
"test_notInit_notRealBoy_getUsed"
test
notInit
notRealBoy
getUsed
That's simple enough: string.gmatch(mystr, "(%w+)")
but sometimes the function names have a double underscore at the last word:
"test_notInit_notRealBoy__getUsed"
And I need the last underscore. The last '_' separated token represents a function name and they *sometimes* start with an underscore (I have no control over the original function names). In this case there is `getUsed` and a `_getUsed` function. So in the latter example, I'd like to get this back:
test
notInit
notRealBoy
_getUsed
Is it possible to do that in one pass?
Cheers,
Russ
