Help with simple parsing

oauth_token=<request-token>&oauth_token_secret=<request-token-secret>

best way to parse out <request-token> and <request-token-secret> from above response line?

Example

#include <Array.au3>

$String = "oauth_token=<request-token>&oauth_token_secret=<request-token-secret>"
$aRet = StringRegExp( $String, "<.*?>", 3 )

_ArrayDisplay( $aRet )

Example

#include <Array.au3>

$String = "oauth_token=<request-token>&oauth_token_secret=<request-token-secret>"
$aRet = StringRegExp( $String, "<.*?>", 3 )

_ArrayDisplay( $aRet )

<request-token> and <request-token-secret> will be some random encoded string in the response code, check out the example below

oauth_token=dsfxy2hy32fh4382&oauth_token_secret=h32jbds89hjlaklsl

OR

oauth_token_secret=h32jbds89hjlaklsl&oauth_token=dsfxy2hy32fh4382

i want to parse them out in variables

$oauth_token = "dsfxy2hy32fh4382"
$oauth_token_secret = "h32jbds89hjlaklsl"

Here we go

#include <Array.au3>

$String = "oauth_token_secret=h32jbds89hjlaklsl&oauth_token=dsfxy2hy32fh4382"
$aRet = StringRegExp( $String, "(?:auth_token(?:_secret)?=)([^&]+)", 3 )
_ArrayDisplay( $aRet )

$oauth_token = $aRet[1]
$oauth_token_secret = $aRet[0]

If you want to retrieve both the tokens distinctly this would help

The previous script would only retrieve the values, without any priority of positions

Try this Example

$String = "oauth_token_secret=h32jbds89hjlaklsl&oauth_token=dsfxy2hy32fh4382"

$oauth_token = StringRegExpReplace( $String, "(?si)(.*?)(oauth_token=)([^&]+)(.*)", "\3" )
$oauth_token_secret = StringRegExpReplace( $String, "(?si)(.*?)(oauth_token_secret=)([^&]+)(.*)", "\3" )

MsgBox( 0, 0, StringFormat( "token: %s\ntoken_secret: %s", $oauth_token, $oauth_token_secret ) )

_ArrayDisplay( $aRet )

$oauth_token = $aRet[1]
$oauth_token_secret = $aRet[0]

If input string is 'oauth_token=dsfxy2hy32fh4382&oauth_token_secret=h32jbds89hjlaklsl'

then 1st element will be

oauth_token

and 2nd

element will be oauth_token_secret

If input string is 'oauth_token_secret=h32jbds89hjlaklsl&oauth_token=dsfxy2hy32fh4382'

then 2nd element will be oauth_token

and 1st element will be oauth_token_secret

what is the best and simplest way to make sure that variable have correct info no matter whats the order of token and token secret in the string is?
