cut problem

Hi

OK I have the following problem:

Code:

---

char *Servaddress;

char        ip[256];
char        user[256];
char        password[256];
int        port;
int        temp = 0;

temp = sscanf(Servaddress,"ftp://%s:%s@%s:%d",&user,&password,&ip,&port);

---

But the result is not what I have expected. I read that %s will read subsequent characters until a whitespace is found. But I need sth which read until the character I want is find, e.g. : or @.

Any ideas?

Use a scanset. And supply a width for the strings.

Code:

---

  temp = sscanf(Servaddress,"ftp://%255[^:]:%255[^@]@%255[^:]:%d",
                user,password,ip,&port);

---

Great :)
Works perfect. Thank you.
