Really Simple C++ String Question

[kjm2much]

Hello all,

I want to alter the string "science_rocket" so that is reads:

"rocket science"

Basically, switch the words and delete the underscore.
How can I do this?

Thanks,

Joe

assuming you are using CString

use .Find to get the position of the underscore
then use the .Right and .Left functions with the position of the underscore to break the string up
then use .Format to recombine the fragments in the order you want

If you want to go with ansi c functions you can use strtok function that will basically split your string, then just using the printf or sprintf you can switch places.

However snuv's will work better for most functionallity.

And if you are not using CString and you want to go with the ansi C++ functions you can use the string class and its find() and substr() methods.
