Answer 1

STL strings

You can use string iterators to do your dirty work.

std::string str = "hello world";

std::string::const_iterator pos = std::find(string.begin(), string.end(), ' '); // Split at ' '.

std::string left(str.begin(), pos);
std::string right(pos + 1, str.end());

// Echoes "hello|world".
std::cout << left << "|" << right << std::endl;
