netlinx-common-libraries's Issues

rename the function array_index() and create new two function

This is not an issue, but it is an enhancement
I suggest to rename or deprecate the function array_index() and rename it to array_dev_index()
and create new functions like:

define_function integer array_string_index(char item[], char list[][])
define_function integer array_integer_index(integer item, integer list[]);
define_function integer array_double_index(double item, double list[]);

I can send a pull request for this if no body is working/want to work on it

string_get_between() return value when not found

I think it is a bad idea to return the string 'error ... ' when no string found. it has to return an empty string

example

stack_var char status1[5]
stack_var char status2[5]

status1 = 'status-error-endstatus';
status2 = 'hello, world!';

status1 = string_get_between(status1, 'status-', '-endstatus');
status2 = string_get_between(status2, 'status-', '-endstatus');

in this case status1 and status2 are both contain the string 'error' and this is wrong

solution: string_size_error() function has to return an empty string
