Double List??

[darklord18]

Hello genius out there!

I have a small problem:

I want to create a double-item listbox from some strings.

Please help me out.

The string will come from a socket.

eg. "(Message1,hello)Message2,hi)"

and the final list code should be

[(u"message1",u"hello"),(u"Message2",u"hi")]

and will be displayed in a listbox.

Please help me out!

Thank you!

Thank you a lot for the reply, but i didnt meant that!I need two row(one for the name and the other for the detail). You can achieve this by writing this!

entries = [(u"Signal",u"Battery"),(u"asd","asd")]

This will give a two rowed listbox.

Ok let me simplify to help you.

I need a code that will change a string to this format:

the string:
liststring= "Signal,Battery:asd,asd"

It will first split it.

making it become
Signal,Battery and asd,asd

Then make the Signal and the battery in the same bracket with its unicode as shown below.

[(u"Signal",u"Battery"),(u"asd",u"asd")]

instead of

[(u"Signal",u"Battery",u"asd",u"asd")]

try to help me plz!

Thank you a lot!

This should work:

liststring="Signal,Battery:asd,asd"

#Make it unicode
liststring=unicode(liststring)

#Split the two parts
a=liststring.split(":")

#Split the elements in the two parts
p1=a[0].split(",")
p2=a[1].split(",")

#Create two empty list to which we will append the elements, and then make tuples out of them
b1=[]
b2=[]

for i in p1:
	b1.append(i)
for i in p2:
	b2.append(i)

final=[tuple(b1),tuple(b2)]
#Should return [(u'Signal', u'Battery'), (u'asd', u'asd')]

Hi! THANK YOU A LOT!!

It works!

I also found another code(if that may help other people):
(#)

data="Data1:helloata2:hiata3:heil"
as=unicode(data)
li=as.split(":")
global msg
msg=[ ]
en=0
for j in li:
if en==0:
a=j
en=1
else:
y=j
first=a,y
msg.append(first)
en=0
app1 = appuifw.Listbox(msg, handler)


(#)
This will give you the list!

THANK YOU A LOT!!

You people doing a GREAT joB!
