split a string in CPP code example

Example 1: split string on character c++

#include <string>       // std::string
#include <sstream>      // std::stringstream

std::stringstream test("this_is_a_test_string");
std::string segment;
std::vector<std::string> seglist;

while(std::getline(test, segment, '_'))
{
   seglist.push_back(segment);
}
// seglist = {"this", "is", "a", "test", "string"};

Example 2: c++ split at character

std::stringstream test("this_is_a_test_string");
std::string segment;
std::vector<std::string> seglist;

while(std::getline(test, segment, '_'))
{
   seglist.push_back(segment); //Spit string at '_' character
}

Example 3: split in c++

std::string s = "scott>=tiger>=mushroom";
std::string delimiter = ">=";

size_t pos = 0;
std::string token;
while ((pos = s.find(delimiter)) != std::string::npos) {
    token = s.substr(0, pos);
    std::cout << token << std::endl;
    s.erase(0, pos + delimiter.length());
}
std::cout << s << std::endl;
