How can i replace multiple occurrences of a character with a string containing the occurrence number. eg if i have the following expression.
insert into emp values(?,?,?)
I want the following converted string.
insert into emp values(_p_1,_p_2,_p_3)
I am trying this using the boost regular expression.
Can anyone tell me how to achieve this using the boost c++ (with no or minimum iteration).
currently I am using the following approach:
std::wstring q=L"insert into emp values(?,?,?)";
auto loc = q.find(L"?");
auto len = wcslen(L"?");
auto c=1;
while(loc != std::wstring::npos)
{
q.replace(loc, len , L"_p_"+to_wstring(c));
c++;
loc = q.find(L"?");
}
cout<<q.c_str();
Please suggest better and efficient approaches.
I'd just forget regular expressions and trying to do this simple thing with Boost.
It's like asking, "how do I add 1 to a variable using Boost regular expressions"?
Best answer, IMHO, is to instead just use ++
for the task of adding 1, and to use a loop to replace special characters with strings.
string const query_format = "insert into emp values(?,?,?)";
string const params[] = {"_p_1", "_p_2", "_p3"};
string query;
string const* p = params;
for( char const c : query_format )
{
if( c == '?' ) { query += *p++; } else { query += c; }
}
// Use `query`
One might choose to wrap this up as a replace
function.
Disclaimer: code not touched by compiler.
If you control the query_format
string, why not instead make the placeholders compatible with Boost format .
Re the parenthetical requirement
” with no or minimum iteration
there's iteration involved no matter how you do this. You can hide the iteration behind a function name, but that's all. It's logically impossible to actually avoid the iteration, and it's trivial (completely trivial) to hide it behind a function name.
