Using boost::tokenizer with string delimiters

Question

I\'ve been looking boost::tokenizer, and I\'ve found that the documentation is very thin. Is it possible to make it tokenize a string such as \"dolphin--monkey--baboon\" and

Answer 1

using iter_split allows you to use multiple character tokens. The code below would produce the following:

dolphin
mon-key
baboon

#include 
#include 
#include 
#include 

    // code starts here
    std::string s = "dolphin--mon-key--baboon";
    std::list stringList;
    boost::iter_split(stringList, s, boost::first_finder("--"));

    BOOST_FOREACH(std::string token, stringList)
    {    
        std::cout << token << '\n';  ;
    }
