Вот C-версия функции strpos с функцией смещения ...
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
int strpos(char *haystack, char *needle, int offset);
int main()
{
char *p = "Hello there all y'al, hope that you are all well";
int pos = strpos(p, "all", 0);
printf("First all at : %d\n", pos);
pos = strpos(p, "all", 10);
printf("Second all at : %d\n", pos);
}
int strpos(char *hay, char *needle, int offset)
{
char haystack[strlen(hay)];
strncpy(haystack, hay+offset, strlen(hay)-offset);
char *p = strstr(haystack, needle);
if (p)
return p - haystack+offset;
return -1;
}
