Checks if the string contains the given substring. The substring may be one of the following:
1)
A string view
sv
(which may be a result of implicit conversion from another
std::basic_string
).
2)
A single character
ch
.
3)
A null-terminated character string
s
.
All three overloads are equivalent to
return
find
(
x
)
!
=
npos
;
, where
x
is the parameter.
Parameters
sv | - |
a string view which may be a result of implicit conversion from another
std::basic_string
|
ch | - | a single character |
s | - | a null-terminated character string |
Return value
true if the string contains the provided substring, false otherwise.

Example
Run this code
#include <iomanip> #include <iostream> #include <string> #include <string_view> #include <type_traits> template<typename SubstrType> void test_substring(const std::string& str, SubstrType subs) { constexpr char delim = std::is_scalar_v<SubstrType> ? '\'' : '\"'; std::cout << std::quoted(str) << (str.contains(subs) ? " contains " : " does not contain ") << std::quoted(std::string{subs}, delim) << '\n'; } int main() { using namespace std::literals; auto helloWorld = "hello world"s; test_substring(helloWorld, "hello"sv); test_substring(helloWorld, "goodbye"sv); test_substring(helloWorld, 'w'); test_substring(helloWorld, 'x'); }
Output:
"hello world" contains "hello" "hello world" does not contain "goodbye" "hello world" contains 'w' "hello world" does not contain 'x'
