std::basic_string::rfind(3) C++ Standard Libary std::basic_string::rfind(3) NAME std::basic_string::rfind - std::basic_string::rfind Synopsis size_type rfind( const basic_string& (until str, size_type pos = npos ) const; C++11) size_type rfind( const basic_string& (since str, C++11) size_type pos = npos ) const (until noexcept; C++20) constexpr size_type rfind( const basic_string& str, (since size_type pos = npos ) const C++20) noexcept; size_type rfind( const CharT* s, (until size_type pos, size_type count ) C++20) const; constexpr size_type rfind( const CharT* s, (since size_type pos, size_type count ) C++20) const; size_type rfind( const CharT* s, (until size_type pos = npos ) const; C++20) constexpr size_type rfind( const (since CharT* s, size_type pos = npos ) C++20) const; size_type rfind( CharT ch, size_type (1) (until pos = npos ) const; C++11) (since size_type rfind( CharT ch, size_type C++11) pos = npos ) const noexcept; (until (2) C++20) constexpr size_type rfind( CharT ch, (since size_type pos = npos ) const C++20) noexcept; (3) template < class StringViewLike > (since size_type (4) C++17) (un- til rfind( const StringViewLike& t, C++20) size_type pos = npos ) const noexcept(/* see below */); (5) template < class StringViewLike > constexpr size_type (since C++20) rfind( const StringViewLike& t, size_type pos = npos ) const noexcept(/* see below */); Finds the last substring equal to the given character sequence. Search begins at pos, i.e. the found substring must not begin in a position following pos. If npos or any value not smaller than size()-1 is passed as pos, whole string will be searched. 1) Finds the last substring equal to str. 2) Finds the last substring equal to the range [s, s+count). This range can include null characters. 3) Finds the last substring equal to the character string pointed to by s. The length of the string is determined by the first null character using Traits::length(s). 4) Finds the last character equal to ch. 5) Implicitly converts t to a string view sv as if by std::ba- sic_string_view<CharT, Traits> sv = t;, then finds the last substring equal to the contents of sv. This overload participates in overload resolution only if std::is_con- vertible_v<const StringViewLike&, std::basic_string_view<CharT, Traits>> is true and std::is_convertible_v<const StringViewLike&, const CharT*> is false. In all cases, equality is checked by calling Traits::eq. Parameters str - string to search for pos - position at which to begin searching count - length of substring to search for s - pointer to a character string to search for ch - character to search for t - object (convertible to std::basic_string_view) to search for Return value Position of the first character of the found substring or npos if no such substring is found. Note that this is an offset from the start of the string, not the end. If searching for an empty string (str.size(), count, or Traits::length(s) is zero) returns pos (the empty string is found immediately) unless pos > size() (including the case where pos == npos), in which case returns size(). Otherwise, if size() is zero, npos is always returned. Exceptions 5) noexcept specification: noexcept(std::is_nothrow_convertible_v<const T&, std::ba- sic_string_view<CharT, Traits>>) Example // Run this code #include <string> #include <iostream> void print(std::string::size_type n, std::string const &s) { if (n == std::string::npos) { std::cout << "not found\n"; } else { std::cout << "found: \"" << s.substr(n) << "\" at " << n << '\n'; } } int main() { std::string::size_type n; std::string const s = "This is a string"; // search backwards from end of string n = s.rfind("is"); print(n, s); // search backwards from position 4 n = s.rfind("is", 4); print(n, s); // find a single character n = s.rfind('s'); print(n, s); // find a single character n = s.rfind('q'); print(n, s); } Output: found: "is a string" at 5 found: "is is a string" at 2 found: "string" at 10 not found Defect reports The following behavior-changing defect reports were applied retroac- tively to previously published C++ standards.
