how to separate a path and the commands Line from a file Full path

[nacerbaaziz]

Hello
I have an inquiry from you
I have a file path  with commands line
Is there a way to separate the path from the commands line?
I want the result in an array
for example
$path = '"c:\NVDA\NVDA slav Portable 1\NVDA.exe" -r -m -path="d:\NVDA Path\Portable"'
there are any method to separate this text?
i want the result to be as that
$array[1] = "c:\NVDA\NVDA slav Portable 1\NVDA.exe"
$array[2] = '-r -m -path="d:\NVDA Path\Portable"'
Thanks in advance
am Waiting for your answers

Where is this command line coming from? If it’s hard coded by you in your script then why can’t you parse it?

[nacerbaaziz]

No I got it using this file

commandLineGet.au3

[BrewManNH]

What is the result of that function? What does it look like and how is it returned, string or array?

array

Then isn’t it already separated? Give us some clue as to what you’re working with, you’re giving us it in tiny pieces.

A lot would depend upon the command line for example:

• Would the first path always be in quotes?
• Would the command always include .exe?
• Does the file exist on the local machine or are you reading the commands from another PCs log/registry etc...

Here is a basic example, which someone could probably do with RegEx (but not my forte).

#include <Array.au3>
Local $path = '"c:\NVDA\NVDA slav Portable 1\NVDA.exe" -r -m -path="d:\NVDA Path\Portable"'
Local $iCount = StringInStr($path, '.exe"', 0, 1)
Local $aArray[3] = [2, StringTrimRight($path, $iCount), StringRight($path, $iCount)]
_ArrayDisplay($aArray)

it return a array
but not separated
for example if the program is running multiple times
$array[0] = number found
$array[1] = first path and commands line
$array[2] = second file path and commands line
...
can i edit it?
to be for example
$array[1][0] = first path
$array[1][1] = first path command line
I am waiting for your help

Not really sure what you mean "but not separated", the code above returns the following array as you wanted in your original post?

$aArray[0] = 2
$aArray[1] = "c:\NVDA\NVDA slav Portable 1\NVDA.exe"
$aArray[2] = -r -m -path="d:\NVDA Path\Portable"

[nacerbaaziz]

Is there any solution to do that

[nacerbaaziz]

If there is no way to do that
Please provide me with another way to get the commands line for the runing process

Have a look at the example in the Help File for _WinAPI_GetProcessCommandLine and ProcessList.  It should give you a starting point.  Also, have a look at the _WinAPI_CommandLineToArgv function.

_WinAPI_GetProcessCommandLine()
ProcessList()
_WinAPI_CommandLineToArgv()

i found this function

can any one tell me how to use it too to get the command line please?

this is the function

i copyed it from the include file
