Can sombody help me dividing a line in parts? I want to break the line at each ';', it is stored in myLine.

Example of a line: surname firstName;6;7;4;10;5;9;8;3;6;7;4;10;5;9;8;6;7;4;10;5;9;6;7;4;10;5;9;

fgets(line[i], LAENGE, datei);          
char* myLine = line[i];

I'm thankful for every tip! :)

Also, save yourself a lot of trouble and prefer `std::string` to `char*` whereever possible. — orlp, Jun 18 '11 at 13:35

std::istringstream iss(myLine);
std::vector<std::string> v;
std::string current;
while(std::getline(iss, current, ';'))
   v.push_back(current));

I may have mixed up the parameter order in getline
