Strtok with consecutive delimiters

[hoohaahii]

Hello,

Say I have the following string str = "1,2,3,,,4"

when I'm applying the strtok function

strtok(str,",") and printing the output it is returning the following

3 5 6 5

is there any way to make it return

3 5 6 0 0 5

it looks strtok is jumping through all the commas and returning the next token.

thanks a lot

Yes, that's strtok step specification: skip delimiters, scan token until the next delimiter or end of string. The strtok can't select empty tokens.

Make your own scanner by hand.
