Class template split_iterator

boost::algorithm::split_iterator — split_iterator

Synopsis

// In header: <boost/algorithm/string/find_iterator.hpp>

template<typename IteratorT> 
class split_iterator {
public:
  // construct/copy/destruct
  split_iterator();
  split_iterator(const split_iterator &);
  template<typename FinderT> split_iterator(IteratorT, IteratorT, FinderT);
  template<typename FinderT, typename RangeT> 
    split_iterator(RangeT &, FinderT);

  // public member functions
  bool eof() const;

  // private member functions
  const match_type & dereference() const;
  void increment();
  bool equal(const split_iterator &) const;
};

Description

Split iterator encapsulates a Finder and allows for incremental searching in a string. Unlike the find iterator, split iterator iterates through gaps between matches.

Find iterator is a readable forward traversal iterator.

Dereferencing the iterator yields an iterator_range delimiting the current match.

split_iterator public construct/copy/destruct

  1. split_iterator();
    Default constructor.

    Construct null iterator. All null iterators are equal.

    Postconditions:

    eof()==true

  2. split_iterator(const split_iterator & Other);
    Copy constructor.

    Construct a copy of the split_iterator

  3. template<typename FinderT> 
      split_iterator(IteratorT Begin, IteratorT End, FinderT Finder);
    Constructor.

    Construct new split_iterator for a given finder and a range.

  4. template<typename FinderT, typename RangeT> 
      split_iterator(RangeT & Col, FinderT Finder);
    Constructor.

    Construct new split_iterator for a given finder and a collection.

split_iterator public member functions

  1. bool eof() const;
    Eof check.

    Check the eof condition. Eof condition means that there is nothing more to be searched i.e. find_iterator is after the last match.

split_iterator private member functions

  1. const match_type & dereference() const;
  2. void increment();
  3. bool equal(const split_iterator & Other) const;
