Finds the first occurrence of the byte string target
in the byte string pointed to by str
. The terminating null characters are not compared.
Parameters
str | - | pointer to the null-terminated byte string to examine |
target | - | pointer to the null-terminated byte string to search for |
Return value
Pointer to the first character of the found substring in str
, or NULL if no such character is found. If target
points to an empty string, str
is returned.
Example
Run this code
#include <iostream> #include <cstring> int main() { const char *str = "Try not. Do, or do not. There is no try."; const char *target = "not"; const char *result = str; while ((result = std::strstr(result, target)) != NULL) { std::cout << "Found '" << target << "' starting at '" << result << "'\n"; // Increment result, otherwise we'll find target at the same location ++result; } }
Output:
Found 'not' starting at 'not. Do, or do not. There is no try.' Found 'not' starting at 'not. There is no try.'
