这是一个简单的stl解决方案(~5行!)使用std::find和std::find_first_not_of来处理重复的分隔符(例如空格或句号)，以及开头和结尾的分隔符:

#include <string>
#include <vector>

void tokenize(std::string str, std::vector<string> &token_v){
    size_t start = str.find_first_not_of(DELIMITER), end=start;

    while (start != std::string::npos){
        // Find next occurence of delimiter
        end = str.find(DELIMITER, start);
        // Push back the token found into vector
        token_v.push_back(str.substr(start, end-start));
        // Skip all occurences of the delimiter to find new start
        start = str.find_first_not_of(DELIMITER, end);
    }
}

现场试试吧!

如果你愿意使用C语言，你可以使用strtok函数。在使用它时，您应该注意多线程问题。

这里有许多过于复杂的建议。试试这个简单的std::string解决方案:

using namespace std;

string someText = ...

string::size_type tokenOff = 0, sepOff = tokenOff;
while (sepOff != string::npos)
{
    sepOff = someText.find(' ', sepOff);
    string::size_type tokenLen = (sepOff == string::npos) ? sepOff : sepOff++ - tokenOff;
    string token = someText.substr(tokenOff, tokenLen);
    if (!token.empty())
        /* do something with token */;
    tokenOff = sepOff;
}

无意冒犯，但对于这样一个简单的问题，你把事情搞得太复杂了。使用Boost有很多理由。但对于这么简单的事情，就像用20号雪橇打苍蝇一样。

void
split( vector<string> & theStringVector,  /* Altered/returned value */
       const  string  & theString,
       const  string  & theDelimiter)
{
    UASSERT( theDelimiter.size(), >, 0); // My own ASSERT macro.

    size_t  start = 0, end = 0;

    while ( end != string::npos)
    {
        end = theString.find( theDelimiter, start);

        // If at end, use length=maxLength.  Else use length=end-start.
        theStringVector.push_back( theString.substr( start,
                       (end == string::npos) ? string::npos : end - start));

        // If at end, use start=maxSize.  Else use start=end+delimiter.
        start = (   ( end > (string::npos - theDelimiter.size()) )
                  ?  string::npos  :  end + theDelimiter.size());
    }
}

例如(以Doug为例)，

#define SHOW(I,X)   cout << "[" << (I) << "]\t " # X " = \"" << (X) << "\"" << endl

int
main()
{
    vector<string> v;

    split( v, "A:PEP:909:Inventory Item", ":" );

    for (unsigned int i = 0;  i < v.size();   i++)
        SHOW( i, v[i] );
}

是的，我们可以split()返回一个新的向量，而不是传入一个。包装和重载是很简单的。但根据我所做的事情，我经常发现重用已有的对象比总是创建新对象更好。(只要我不忘记清空中间的向量!)

(我最初是在写一个回应Doug的问题:基于分隔符的c++字符串修改和提取(关闭)。但由于马丁·约克用这里的指针结束了这个问题……我将泛化我的代码。)

pystring是一个小型库，实现了Python的一系列字符串函数，包括split方法:

#include <string>
#include <vector>
#include "pystring.h"

std::vector<std::string> chunks;
pystring::split("this string", chunks);

// also can specify a separator
pystring::split("this-string", chunks, "-");

/// split a string into multiple sub strings, based on a separator string
/// for example, if separator="::",
///
/// s = "abc" -> "abc"
///
/// s = "abc::def xy::st:" -> "abc", "def xy" and "st:",
///
/// s = "::abc::" -> "abc"
///
/// s = "::" -> NO sub strings found
///
/// s = "" -> NO sub strings found
///
/// then append the sub-strings to the end of the vector v.
/// 
/// the idea comes from the findUrls() function of "Accelerated C++", chapt7,
/// findurls.cpp
///
void split(const string& s, const string& sep, vector<string>& v)
{
    typedef string::const_iterator iter;
    iter b = s.begin(), e = s.end(), i;
    iter sep_b = sep.begin(), sep_e = sep.end();

    // search through s
    while (b != e){
        i = search(b, e, sep_b, sep_e);

        // no more separator found
        if (i == e){
            // it's not an empty string
            if (b != e)
                v.push_back(string(b, e));
            break;
        }
        else if (i == b){
            // the separator is found and right at the beginning
            // in this case, we need to move on and search for the
            // next separator
            b = i + sep.length();
        }
        else{
            // found the separator
            v.push_back(string(b, i));
            b = i;
        }
    }
}

boost库很好，但并不总是可用的。手工做这些事情也是很好的脑力锻炼。这里我们只使用STL中的std::search()算法，参见上面的代码。
