SubString( )


SubString( ) Saves substring digits in a given variable

 SubString(   variable   =   string_of_digits   ,   count1   ,   count2   ) 

Assigns the substring of string_of_digits to a given variable. The parameter count1 may be positive or negative. If it's positive, we skip the first count1 digits from the left. If it's negative, we move count1 digits from the end of the string to the left. The parameter count2 indicates how many digits to take from the point that count1 placed us. If count2 is negative, that many digits are omitted from the end.

This application is deprecated. Instead, use ${EXTEN: X : Y } .

 ; here are some examples using SubString(  ):     ;assign the area code (3 first digits) to variable TEST  exten => 8885551212,1,SubString(TEST=8885551212,0,3)  ; assign the last 7 digits to variable TEST  exten => 8885551212,1,SubString(TEST=8885551212,-7,7)  ; assign all but the last 4 digits to variable TEST  exten => 8885551212,1,SubString(TEST=8885551212,0,-4)  ;     ; and here are the preferred alternatives:     ;assign the area code (3 first digits) to variable TEST     exten => 8885551212,1,Set(TEST=${EXTEN::3})     ; assign the last 7 digits to variable TEST     exten => 8885551212,1,Set(TEST=${EXTEN:-7:7})     ; assign all but the last 4 digits to variable TEST     exten => 8885551212,1,Set(TEST=${EXTEN:6}
