Exploding a string in c++, need help.

I am trying to explode a string in c++ using string operations:

// read in user input
std::cout << "Please enter operation:\n";
std::cin >> operation;
     
while(operation.empty()){
     string::size_type loc = operation.find( " ", 0);
     cout << "Found space at " << loc << endl;
     operation.erase(operation.at(loc).size());
}

Code (markup):

I have looked many places, and size should be an operation for strings, however, I keep getting this error:

error C2039: 'size' : is not a member of 'System::SByte'

I also tried length (which should be the same thing), similar error.

Thanks for any help,

Peace,

 

I think u can try it as len instead of length...if any error PM me

I guess you need to use substr api .

 

Do you mean collapse instead of explode? erase will remove characters. If you do mean collapse, try:
string::size_type loc = operation.find( " ", 0);
while(loc != -1){
cout << "Found space at " << loc << endl;
operation.erase(loc,1);
loc = operation.find( " ", 0);
}
