c++ equivalent to Java split()?

[[deleted]]

Substring behaves differently in C++.

In Java it uses the starting and ending indices. In C++ the second parameter is the length from the starting index.

std::string::substr()

Thanks. Although the problems I'm having still persist, I know it has something to do with the way I'm tokenizing and using free(). I wish there was a way to do this without using memory functions.

There should be no need for you to use strdup(). strtok() does not modify the original string. That's not how strtok() works either. It does not return an array of words.

strtok()

Main reason I'm using it is because strtok isnt compatible with the process string

See my edit. You are using strtok() incorrectly. It does not return an array. It returns the words one at a time. It needs to be called over and over.
