Parsing a string using a delimiter to a TStringList, seems to also parse on spaces (Delphi)

Question

I have a simple string which is delimited by some character, let's say a comma. I should be able to create a TStringList and set it's delimiter to a comma then set the DelimitedText to the text I want to parse and it should be automaticlly parsed.

The problem is when I look at the output it also includes spaces as delimiters and chops up my results. How can I avoid this, or is there a better way to do this.

Answer 1

There's a StrictDelimiter property on the TStringList. Set it to True and it will only parse on the delimiter, not the spaces.

Answer 2

That's standard, documented behavior of the TStrings.DelimitedText property. You want to set the StrictDelimiter property to true to disable that behavior.
