String problem!

[StoneHeart]

i really need help on solving this string problem. im new to vc6 so hope you guys could help me. anyway here is my problem.

i had a string something like this

123456nn1n2nn4n5nnAnBnCnnDEFnnnn

n is null character

i want to split the string to an array but i dont know how. iv tried strtok method but i only get 123456. the rest is truncated.

i could do it in vb like this

dim i as integer
dim s() as string

s = split(thestring, vbnullchar)

for i = 0 to ubound(s)
debug.print s(i)
next

the output is

123456
12
45
ABC
DEF

that is the output i want.

hope you guys understand what i mean and could help me solve this problem.

thanks in advance :)

What did you set as the delimiting character?
A null-character denotes the end of a string. Although, I don't know if strtok( ) considers the first null-character as the end of the string.

Also, it would be easier to help you if you posted the code.

just read char by char, when you get to a null char start a new line, discard following null chars, repeat.

when you hit a null maybe go into a while loop,

//get character
if (char is null)
{
  //start new line
  while (ch == '\n')
  {
     inf.get(ch);
  }
}

that way the subsequent nulls are read in and discarded.
