string - PowerShell: Split user defined distinguished name into individual parts -


i have gui accepts few dns user. know how text, can't life of me figure out how split dn individual parts. number of parts might vary. example:

$string1 = "ou=this,ou=is,dc=a,dc=string" $string2 = "ou=this,ou=is,ou=another,dc=dn,dc=string

what i'm trying separate ou's dc's , create ou's if don't exist. can't figure out how separate ou's dc's , make them separate strings i'll left with:

$newstring1 = "ou=this,ou=is" $newstring2 = "dc=a,dc=string" $newstring3 = "this,ou=is,ou=another" $newstring4 = "dc=dn,dc=string

i know can split strings using $string1.split(","), i'm @ loss @ point how store individual values in new variable. i'm new powershell, advice appreciated.

i know can create ou's information have, need them separated other work that's going done in code. nice see them split such can grab ou's individually.

hopefully helpful in terms of what's being asked. assumes want store relative distinguished names in 2 groups: before hit dc= , after (and including) hit dc=.

$string1 = "ou=this,ou=is,dc=a,dc=string" $string2 = "ou=this,ou=is,ou=another,dc=dn,dc=string"  foreach ($dn in $string1, $string2) {     # break distinguished name list of relative distinguished names     $rdnlist = $dn -split ',';     $cnlist = @();     $nextindex = 0;      while ($nextindex -lt $rdnlist.length)     {         $rdn = $rdnlist[$nextindex];         $name, $value = $rdn -split '=';          # stop looping if we've hit dc= rdn         if ($name -eq 'dc')         {             break;         }          $cnlist += $rdn;         $nextindex++;     }     # remainder of array our rdn list     $dclist = $rdnlist[$nextindex..($rdnlist.length - 1)];      # reassemble both lists strings     $cntext = $cnlist -join ',';     $dctext = $dclist -join ',';      # data has been processed; print out         write-host "`$dn: $dn";     write-host "`$cntext: $cntext";     write-host "`$dctext: $dctext";     write-host; }

output is...

$dn: ou=this,ou=is,dc=a,dc=string $cntext: ou=this,ou=is $dctext: dc=a,dc=string  $dn: ou=this,ou=is,ou=another,dc=dn,dc=string $cntext: ou=this,ou=is,ou=another $dctext: dc=dn,dc=string

android - InAppBilling registering BroadcastReceiver in AndroidManifest -

i'm implementing inapp billing in android app. works well, however, i'm trying decouple broadcast receiver activity manifest. suggestion in android's trivialdrive sample: // important: dynamically register broadcast messages updated purchases. // register receiver here instead of <receiver> in manifest // because call getpurchases() @ startup, therefore can ignore // broadcasts sent while app isn't running. // note: registering listener in activity bad idea, done here // because sample. regardless, receiver must registered after // iabhelper setup, before first call getpurchases(). currently there's class extends broadcastreceiver : public class iabbroadcastreceiver extends broadcastreceiver { /** * intent action receiver should filter for. */ public static final string action = "com.android.vending.billing.purchases_updated"; private final iabbroadcastlistener mlistener; public iabbroadcastreceiver(iabbroadcastlistener listener) { m...

python Tkinter Capturing keyboard events save as one single string -

is possible store keyboard events 1 string? code below stores 1 char , prints it. card reader or bar code reader, contains collection of character/ string not 1 character @ time. goal save char pressed text variable. from tkinter import * root = tk() def key(event): text= event.char text+= event.char print ("pressed", text) def callback(event): frame.focus_set() print ("clicked at", event.x, event.y) frame = frame(root, width=100, height=100) frame.bind("<key>", key) frame.bind("<button-1>", callback) frame.pack() root.mainloop() currently, creating text variable , everytime key() function gets called, , text stores last character typed. you can define text module level variable , , use module level text inside key function - text = '' def key(event): global text text+= event.char print("pressed", text)

sql server - Why does Linq-to-SQL add unnecessary COUNT()? -

here tables: create table customer ( cid int primary key, name varchar(32) ) create table ord ( oid int primary key, cid int foreign key references customer, address varchar(20) ) here's linq-to-sql statement: var aaa = c in db.customer select new { c, o = c.ord.tolist() }; and here's inexplicable query generated linq-to-sql: select [t0].[cid] [cid], [t0].[name] [name], [t1].[oid] [oid], [t1].[cid] [cid2], [t1].[address] [address], (select count(*) [dbo].[ord] [t2] [t2].[cid] = [t0].[cid]) [value] [dbo].[customer] [t0] left outer join [dbo].[ord] [t1] on [t1].[cid] = [t0].[cid] order [t0].[cid], [t1].[oid] i want understand how rid of count(*) part. it's entirely uncalled for! linq needs count(*) in order determine number of entries returned o = c.ord.tolist() .
