Thread: Hi ... parsing a char*

Hi ... I'm new to c++ programming and i'm trying to parse a large char* which contains something like this :

Header 1
Header 2

Login name

a=1234123
b=23423
c=23432
a=qwerty

and i need to save them into variables (array of strings maybe? )

Here is my try ... I dont know how to take all the chars and put then on the string ... also if you think of a better way of doing this it would be great !!! thank you

Code:

void parsing(char* reply){

    int j=0;

    for(int i=0;i<reply.length();i++){

        int next=i+1;
        int fwd=i+2;


        if( (reply[i]=='\n')&&(reply[fwd]=='=') ){

            parsedhead[j]=reply[next];
            parseddata[j]= //HELP HERE :(
            j++;
        }
}
}

both arrays i have then already declared

Use C++ strings if you're actually programming in C++ and use stringstream - C++ Reference
