Is there a multiple character version of strchr() in the standard C libraries?
In c if I wanted to search a string for a particular character I can just do the following
char *p;
p = (char *)strchr(buffer,'(');
if(p){
....
but what if I want to search for more than one character (or a character range) for example "any digit". I know I could do some开发者_开发技巧thing like
char *p=0;
char *i;
for(i=buffer;*i!='\0';i++){
if(*i >= '0' && *i <=9){
p=i;
}
}
if(p){
...
assuming a properly terminated string etc. But is there a standard library function that already provides this functionality (hopefully more safely)
What about strpbrk? Sounds like it fits your bill.
const char * strpbrk ( const char * str1, const char * str2 );
"Returns a pointer to the first occurrence in str1 of any of the characters that are part of str2, or a null pointer if there are no matches."
EDIT: Link is to a C++ site, but strpbrk
is part of the standard C library.
