    <p>I am playing around with the boost strings library and have just come across the awesome simplicity of the split method. </p> <pre><code> string delimiters = ","; string str = "string, with, comma, delimited, tokens, \"and delimiters, inside a quote\""; // If we didn't care about delimiter characters within a quoted section we could us vector&lt;string&gt; tokens; boost::split(tokens, str, boost::is_any_of(delimiters)); // gives the wrong result: tokens = {"string", " with", " comma", " delimited", " tokens", "\"and delimiters", " inside a quote\""} </code></pre> <p>Which would be nice and concise... however it doesn't seem to work with quotes and instead I have to do something like the following</p> <pre><code>string delimiters = ","; string str = "string, with, comma, delimited, tokens, \"and delimiters, inside a quote\""; vector&lt;string&gt; tokens; escaped_list_separator&lt;char&gt; separator("\\",delimiters, "\""); typedef tokenizer&lt;escaped_list_separator&lt;char&gt; &gt; Tokeniser; Tokeniser t(str, separator); for (Tokeniser::iterator it = t.begin(); it != t.end(); ++it) tokens.push_back(*it); // gives the correct result: tokens = {"string", " with", " comma", " delimited", " tokens", "\"and delimiters, inside a quote\""} </code></pre> <p>My question is can split or another standard algorithm be used when you have quoted delimiters? Thanks to purpledog but I already have a non-deprecated way of achieving the desired outcome, I just think that it's quite cumbersome and unless I could replace it with a simpler more elegant solution I wouldn't use it in general without first wrapping it in yet another method.</p> <p>EDIT: Updated code to show results and clarify question. </p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
