Here is an example I’m using:
C_COLLECTION($aOrderByCols)
$aOrderByCols:=Split string($orderBy;"%";sk ignore empty strings+sk
trim spaces)
$orderBy is a text string with “%” separated terms, like “foo %bar%more %%data”.
As a result of the statement above, $aOrderByCols will become:
[“foo”,”bar”,”more”,”data”], as spaces and empty items are trimmed.
That replaces a utility method í’ve had for decades.
