    strtok_r()

    anyone have the implementation of the strtok_r() function?
    i've been searching on google, but it only returns how to use the function, but not how it actually is implemented..

    here's the strtok function, couldn't find strtok_r though

    Code:
     /***
     *strtok.c - tokenize a string with given delimiters
     *
     *	   Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
     *
     *Purpose:
     *	   defines strtok() - breaks string into series of token
     *	   via repeated calls.
     *
     *******************************************************************************/
     
     #include <cruntime.h>
     #include <string.h>
     #ifdef _MT
     #include <mtdll.h>
     #endif  /* _MT */
     
     /***
     *char *strtok(string, control) - tokenize string with delimiter in control
     *
     *Purpose:
     *	   strtok considers the string to consist of a sequence of zero or more
     *	   text tokens separated by spans of one or more control chars. the first
     *	   call, with string specified, returns a pointer to the first char of the
     *	   first token, and will write a null char into string immediately
     *	   following the returned token. subsequent calls with zero for the first
     *	   argument (string) will work thru the string until no tokens remain. the
     *	   control string may be different from call to call. when no tokens remain
     *	   in string a NULL pointer is returned. remember the control chars with a
     *	   bit map, one bit per ascii char. the null char is always a control char.
     *
     *Entry:
     *	   char *string - string to tokenize, or NULL to get next token
     *	   char *control - string of characters to use as delimiters
     *
     *Exit:
     *	   returns pointer to first token in string, or if string
     *	   was NULL, to next token
     *	   returns NULL when no more tokens remain.
     *

    The only difference between strtok and strtok_r is that strtok_r is reentrant. That means that the function does not maintain an internal state between calls. Every implementation of strtok that I know of uses a static variable to save the state so that the next call will begin at the proper location. strtok_r is not a standard function so it can be implemented in different ways as the interface is not set in stone if I recall correctly.

    An example of the interface that strtok_r might use is as follows.
    Code:
    char *strtok_r(char *str, const char *sep, char **last);
    Then instead of saving the position in a static variable, it is saved in last and last is then used as the first argument for subsequent calls.
    Code:
    char *last = string;
    
    while ((t = strtok_r(last, ":", &last)) != NULL) {
      /* Do something with t */
    }

    When all else fails, read the instructions.
    If you're posting code, use code tags: [code] /* insert code here */ [/code]
