Find last occurrence in string

Searches the basic_string for the last occurrence of the sequence specified by its arguments.

When pos is specified, the search only includes sequences of characters that begin at or before position pos, ignoring any possible match beginning after pos.

The function uses traits_type::eq to determine character equivalences.



Parameters
str
Another basic_string with the subject to search for.
pos
Position of the last character in the string to be considered as the beginning of a match.
Any value greater or equal than the string length (including basic_string::npos) means that the entire string is searched.
Note: The first character is denoted by a value of 0 (not 1).
s
Pointer to an array of characters.
If argument n is specified (3), the sequence to match are the first n characters in the array.
Otherwise (2), a null-terminated sequence is expected: the length of the sequence to match is determined by the first occurrence of a null character.
n
Length of sequence of characters to match.
c
Individual character to be searched for.

charT is basic_string's character type (i.e., its first template parameter).
Member type size_type is an unsigned integral type.

Return Value The position of the first character of the last match.
If no matches were found, the function returns basic_string::npos.

Member type size_type is an unsigned integral type.

// string::rfind
#include <iostream>
#include <string>

int main ()
{
  std::string str ("The sixth sick sheik's sixth sheep's sick.");
  std::string key ("sixth");

  std::string::size_type found = str.rfind(key);
  if (found!=std::string::npos)
    str.replace (found,key.length(),"seventh");

  std::cout << str << '\n';

  return 0;
}

The sixth sick sheik's seventh sheep's sick.


Complexity Unspecified, but generally up to linear in the string length (or pos) times the number of characters to match (worst case).

Iterator validity No changes.

Data races The object is accessed.

Exception safety If s does not point to an array long enough, it causes undefined behavior.
Otherwise, the function never throws exceptions (no-throw guarantee).
