TCL script : need help

Altair Forum User

Dear Sir,

I am Begineer to TCL scripting. need small help

actually i am developing a small script i.e 

lets say i have few components with naming like COMPNAME_MATNAME_Txx.  this script will read COMPNAME & and it will create a PSHELL property with thickness (xx) with same name. and also it will read MATNAME and it will create material with same name.

 

Q) i want split the original compname & matname and assign to some variable like this :    set thickness [string trimleft [lindex [split $comp_name _] end] t]

how to do this one?

I have done with simple commands like (string range).please refer below picture

 

 

Thank you,

Regards,

Gopi

Hi

Suppose there are only 3 '_' in the name.

regexp -nocase {^([^_]+)_([^_]+)_t(.+)$} $comp_name = CompName MatName Thickness

Thanks for your quick reply.

yeah i want to split according  '_ . (underscore)

but how to assign to different variable using above logic?

i want to do like this:  set compname xxxxxxx(logic) 

                                      set matname xxxxxxxx(logic)

                                     set thickness [string trimleft [lindex [split $comp_name _] end] t]

getting some error please check below pic

Please type it as it is, from regexp to the end, don't miss any character, you will get CompName MatName and Thickness

Hi ,

I tried with below command but did not get comp mat and thickness names.

regexp -nocase {^([^_]+)_([^_]+)_t(.+)$} $comp_name

can suggest me another method to split this (ex:comp1_mat1_txx). I want to split this onto three different parts i.e comp1, mat1, & xx (thickness value)

 

thanks in advance

You can use split, lassing, string range commands to do it.

Regexp will do it in 1 invocation.
