[Q]: String parsing

[jeremy]

Hello,

I have to port an app i wrote with MFC to VB. I used strtok (or whatever it is) to tokenize the command line i had to parse. It worked beautifuly. However VB lacks good string manipulating functions as I have seen. Is there anything in VB that can tokenize a string as like in C? Any code anywhere that does this?


thanx,

jeremy

Hi


Back in the Days when I did use C, I never used the 'strtok' function (we always did it the hard way (i.e. someone had wrapped it in their own routine). I did however find a routine at http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb that may help:


Either go to http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb and do a search for strtok (returns 2 results) or look at

for a direct conversion of strtok.


Hope it helps
