Solved "Parse" own "syntax"

Hello together,

I would like to parse a syntax like those:

The first works. But how can I get the 2nd to work?

Here's also the code (for the first):

Code:

        String[] eqa = eqs.split("|");
    for (String s : eqa){
        if (s.contains(":")){
            try {
                    Integer i = Integer.parseInt(s.split(":")[0]);
                     if (!this.guns.containsKey(i))
                             this.guns.put(i, 1);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                continue;
            }
        }else{
            try {
                Integer i = Integer.parseInt(s.split(":")[0]);
                Integer a = Integer.parseInt(s.split(":")[1]);
                if (!this.guns.containsKey(i))
                    this.guns.put(i, a);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                continue;
            }
        }
    }

Thank you very much,

If I remember correctly the problem is | with regex, try split("\\|") instead.

Also your contains(":") condition blocks might be reversed ?

 

So wait, what exactly do you want to do with the {} keys?

 

Oh...

between the brackets stands alternatives.

I've got it right now, that it runs through every letter and checks is it is a { or a |...

But thanks...
