I would like to know if there is a method using boost::split to split a string using whole strings as a delimiter. For example:
str = "xxaxxxxabcxxxxbxxxcxxx"
is there a method to split this string using "abc"
as a a delimiter? Therefore returning:
Results would be the string "xxaxxxx"
and "xxxxbxxxcxxx"
.
I am aware of boost::split
using the "is_any_of"
predicate, however invoking is_any_of("abc")
would result in splitting the string at the single character 'a', 'b', and 'c' as well, which is not what I want.
split_regex
as suggested by @Mythli is fine. If you don't want to deal with regex, you can use ifind_all
algo, as is shown in this example. You receive iterator_range
(begin/end) of all occurrences of you delimiter. Your tokens are between them (and at the beginning and end of string).
