Hello, I have formatted lines delimited by colon ":", and I need to parse the line into two parts with sscanf() with format specifiers.
infile.txt:
And here is my code fragment:
There may not be space/tab before or after the colon. Ignoring the float/integer data type for numbers at this moment.
For each line I could not get the first half to name, and the first part after ":" into str1. The problem is sscanf() does not stop at the end of each line. Spent some time reading the manpage of sscanf() and my old post, could not figure it out myself.
What is wrong with my sscanf() line? Thanks a lot.

char A = "";

sscanf does not stop at the first "&". How can I extract "doe" ?
char A = "name=john&last=doe&job=vacant&";
char B = "last";
char C = "";
char *POINTER = strstr(A, B);
sscanf(POINTER + strlen(B), "=%s%*", C);
printf("%s\n", C); // doe&job=vacant& (2 Replies)

{
char TEXT = "";
int NUMBER = 0;
