void str::clean (  std::string *  str, const char *  chars )

Remove leading and trailing characters from a string. Parameters: str  = the string to be cleaned chars  = the characters to clean from the string

bool str::read_line (  std::string *  str, FILE *  file = stdin, bool  do_chomp = false )

Read a line from a file. Parameters: str  = the string to read to file  = the file to read from do_chomp  = should we chomp the possible newline at the end Returns: false if no more lines in the file

bool str::read_string (  std::string *  str, size_t  length, FILE *  file = stdin )

Read a string of given length from a file. Parameters: str  = the string to read to length  = the bytes to read file  = the file to read from Returns: false if could not read length bytes

void str::split (  const std::string *  str, const char *  chars, bool  group, std::vector< std::string > *  strings, int  fields = 0 )

Split a string to fields. If fields is positive, it specifies the maximum number of fields. If the line contains more fields, they are included in the last field as such (also possible delimiters without processing). Parameters: str  = the string to be splitted chars  = the delimiter characters group  = group subsequent delimiters as one delimeter strings  = the vector containing the resulting fields fields  = the maximum number of fields to return
