It can be done using regularexpression.

If CreateRegularExpression(0, "([0-9][0-9][0-9]|[0-9][0-9]|[0-9]).([0-9][0-9][0-9]|[0-9][0-9]|[0-9]).([0-9][0-9][0-9]|[0-9][0-9]|[0-9]).([0-9][0-9][0-9]|[0-9][0-9]|[0-9])")

  Dim Result$(0)
  
  a = ExtractRegularExpression(0, "here is some text with 139.123.123.123 and 1.23.2.223 as IP addresses", result$())
  
  MessageRequester("Info", "Nb strings found: "+Str(a))
  
  For k=0 To a-1
    MessageRequester("Info", Result$(k))
  Next

Else
  MessageRequester("Error", RegularExpressionError())
EndIf

Good excuse to learn how to use these

Thanks. Probably a more efficient way though if you are good at writing these things

Tanks u, but returned error; createregularexpresion() is not a function, an array, or linked list. I need a lib ?

I have very surce cod whit PB3.94 it is compatible this cods whit PB4.2 ?

3.94 code is partly compatible with 4.2, but 4.2 has a lot new functions, e.g. some for handling regular expressions.
if you need RegEx, you'll need 4.2

if you need 3.94 for completing some older project, download the 4.2 installer and put it in a new directory.
you can run two compiler versions on the same machine.

Oh !, Thanks all

some of the functions have a different number of parameters, like some of the windowID() or createdialog or allocatememory but they work the same. It could be a bit of work if you have lots of code but worth the effort since there was a lot of goodies in 4.0

Ah, and the user libs its compatible ?.

Kaeru Gaman · Post by **Kaeru Gaman** » Sun Oct 12, 2008 11:54 am

¡no!

most userlibs are not cross-version compatible.

Ohh!
This is a big big problem: (.
How can it use this function without updating my PB3.94?

pdwyer · Post by **pdwyer** » Sun Oct 12, 2008 12:02 pm

Are there v4 versions of the libs? v4 has been out a while.

Can you install side by side and make a v4 compiled "IP Address search DLL" and use that in your current app and compile with 3.94?

Mmmm ...
no, i create a bot for Irc games and i need test if a ip is runing the game in the port 2300, i need a single exe .

Looks like you're screwed then!

...or you have to write your own function to do this. Find the "."s and check the distance between them, check if they are numbers then if so return it. Sounds like more effort that porting the code to the present version.

Are you sure the user libs won't work? not worth trying?

Why can't a bot use a DLL? I didn't understand your reason for that
