Hi.

My code running:

http://dpaste.dzfl.pl/2183586524df

Output:

SerialNumber
927160020XXXX (X = Some Numbers)

How do I delete "SerialNumber" text?

Example

string SomeRiz = system(a);

I get an error:

b.d(10): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (system(a)) of type int to
string

Later;

string SomeRiz = cast(string)system(a);

I get an error 2:

b.d(10): Error: cannot cast system(a) of type int to string


How do I delete "SerialNumber" text?

I just, want to see the numbers:

927160020XXXX

Sorry for my bad english

The problem is that `system` returns the process exit code (an integer), not the output of the process.  Try using std.process.execute or std.process.executeShell.

Hi Justin thank you.

I'm using

executeShell(a);

Output:

ProcessOutput(0, "SerialNumber    \r\r\n92716002xxxx \r\r\n\r\r\n")

How do I delete ProcessOutPut, 0, SerialNumber, \r,\n text?

I want to see just out: 92716002xxxx

Sorry for my bad english :(

Try this:

	import std.regex;
	string extractSerial(string input) {
		auto m = input.match(`SerialNumber\s+(\S+)\s+`);
		if (m)
			return m.captures[1];
		else
			throw new Exception("Could not find serial number");
	}

	auto input = "SerialNumber    \r\r\n92716002xxxx \r\r\n\r\r\n";
	writeln(extractSerial(input)); // prints "92716002xxxx"

Hope this helps.

Thanks Teoh

I'm trying compile but i get an error:

b.d(22): Error: function b.extractSerial (string input) is not callable using ar
gument types (ProcessOutput)

According to its documentation, executeShell() returns a Tuple consisting of the return status and the output of the executed program:

  http://dlang.org/library/std/process/executeShell.html

Do not print the entire returned Tuple. Instead, print just the .status member of it:

    auto result = executeShell(a);

    if (result.status == 0) {
        // It worked! Now we can get the output:

        auto output = result.output;

        // Use 'output' here...
    }

So, 'output' above is what you should pass to extractSerial() function that H. S. Teoh has written:

    assert(extractSerial(output) == "92716002xxxx");

(I have not tested the code above.)

Thanks I'm test code :) Successfully :)

Thank you :)
