How would i scan a std::string for a certain character, and then copy from that character and on into a new string? Im asking because i''ve implemented RLE into my map saving routine, which stores repeats by tile.id, something like 5:42, and im trying to load it properly, and i need to check the strings to see if they contain : and then get the number out of it. Any help would be apprecitated

This looks like it would work:
size_type find(charT c, size_type pos = 0) const

So, this should work:


string temp;
int position=temp.find('':'',0);

Now position should contain the position of the first '':''. If you need the second just use the position as the second argument (where to start)
