Overview

The tokens_parse() function converts a string to a tokens structure which is defined in <abz/tokens.h> as follows:

struct tokens
{
	int argc;
	char **argv;
};

Each argument consists of non-whitespace characters or characters between double quotes ("). The tokens_destroy() function free memory allocated by the tokens_parse() function.

Return value

The tokens_parse() function returns 0 if successful or -1 if some error occurred. Call abz_get_error() to see what error occurred.

Notes

None of the libabz routines are thread-safe. I'm not planning to change this either! For more information, please see http://threading.2038bug.com/
