我认为发布一个不使用任何库函数的原始解决方案是有意义的…

// Checks whether `str' ends with `suffix'
bool endsWith(const std::string& str, const std::string& suffix) {
    if (&suffix == &str) return true; // str and suffix are the same string
    if (suffix.length() > str.length()) return false;
    size_t delta = str.length() - suffix.length();
    for (size_t i = 0; i < suffix.length(); ++i) {
        if (suffix[i] != str[delta + i]) return false;
    }
    return true;
}

添加一个简单的std::tolower，我们可以使这种情况不敏感

// Checks whether `str' ends with `suffix' ignoring case
bool endsWithIgnoreCase(const std::string& str, const std::string& suffix) {
    if (&suffix == &str) return true; // str and suffix are the same string
    if (suffix.length() > str.length()) return false;
    size_t delta = str.length() - suffix.length();
    for (size_t i = 0; i < suffix.length(); ++i) {
        if (std::tolower(suffix[i]) != std::tolower(str[delta + i])) return false;
    }
    return true;
}

使用boost::algorithm::ends_with(参见http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_34_0/doc/html/boost/algorithm/ends_with.html):

#include <boost/algorithm/string/predicate.hpp>

// works with const char* 
assert(boost::algorithm::ends_with("mystring", "ing"));

// also works with std::string
std::string haystack("mystring");
std::string needle("ing");
assert(boost::algorithm::ends_with(haystack, needle));

std::string haystack2("ng");
assert(! boost::algorithm::ends_with(haystack2, needle));

使用这个函数:

inline bool ends_with(std::string const & value, std::string const & ending)
{
    if (ending.size() > value.size()) return false;
    return std::equal(ending.rbegin(), ending.rend(), value.rbegin());
}

std::mismatch方法可以用于从两个字符串的末尾开始向后迭代:

const string sNoFruit = "ThisOneEndsOnNothingMuchFruitLike";
const string sOrange = "ThisOneEndsOnOrange";

const string sPattern = "Orange";

assert( mismatch( sPattern.rbegin(), sPattern.rend(), sNoFruit.rbegin() )
          .first != sPattern.rend() );

assert( mismatch( sPattern.rbegin(), sPattern.rend(), sOrange.rbegin() )
          .first == sPattern.rend() );

bool endswith(const std::string &str, const std::string &suffix)
{
    string::size_type totalSize = str.size();
    string::size_type suffixSize = suffix.size();

    if(totalSize < suffixSize) {
        return false;
    }

    return str.compare(totalSize - suffixSize, suffixSize, suffix) == 0;
}

另一种选择是使用正则表达式。下面的代码使搜索对大小写不敏感:

bool endsWithIgnoreCase(const std::string& str, const std::string& suffix) {
  return std::regex_search(str,
     std::regex(std::string(suffix) + "$", std::regex_constants::icase));
}

可能不是很有效，但是很容易实现。
