Hello.
I am trying to split a string into two strings.
The string should be split-ed by locating a first space character from the
left.
Please look at a simple code I made:

public class Main
{
public static int main (string[] args)
{
    long index = 0;
    string col1,col2;
    string line = "happy doggy";
    for(;index<=line.len();index++)
          if(line[index] == ' ') break;
    col1 = line.substring(0,index);
    col2 = line.substring(index+1,line.len());

    stdout.printf ("Line - %s\n", line);
    stdout.printf ("index - %f ,Len() - f%\n" ,index,line.len());
    stdout.printf ("Col1 - %s ,Col2 - s%\n" ,col1,col2);
  return 0;
}
}

*When I compile this code I get:*

/home/arkadi/Bug/main.vala.c: In function ‘main_main’:
/home/arkadi/Bug/main.vala.c:113: warning: unknown conversion type character
0xa in format
/home/arkadi/Bug/main.vala.c:114: warning: unknown conversion type character
0xa in format

Hehe . I think that vala here should display the aliased character instead of the hex value. ('\n') This way the error would be more consistent.. But yeah this code is awful

<b>Process return 0  execution time: 0.674968 s</b>

*When I run this code I get:*

Line - happy doggy
<b>Process return 0  execution time: 0.008026 s</b>
index - 5.000000 ,Len() - f%
** (process:7502): CRITICAL **: string_substring: assertion ` (offset + len)
&lt;= string_length' failed
Col1 - happy ,Col2 - s%

You can see that, It finds the place where to split the string very well
(5.000000) and col1="happy"
,but for the second part, line.Len() = f% and col2 = s%...
I have tried to change line.len() to numbers, but it's not the problem...
How to get col2="doggy" ???
Maybe some one know what is the problem with this code? or maybe it is
really a bug?
