这里有一个容易理解的解决方案，初学者不习惯编写std::无处不在，还不熟悉常量正确性，迭代器，STL算法等…

#include <string>
#include <cctype> // for isspace
using namespace std;


// Left trim the given string ("  hello!  " --> "hello!  ")
string left_trim(string str) {
    int numStartSpaces = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < str.length(); i++) {
        if (!isspace(str[i])) break;
        numStartSpaces++;
    }
    return str.substr(numStartSpaces);
}

// Right trim the given string ("  hello!  " --> "  hello!")
string right_trim(string str) {
    int numEndSpaces = 0;
    for (int i = str.length() - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
        if (!isspace(str[i])) break;
        numEndSpaces++;
    }
    return str.substr(0, str.length() - numEndSpaces);
}

// Left and right trim the given string ("  hello!  " --> "hello!")
string trim(string str) {
    return right_trim(left_trim(str));
}

希望能有所帮助……

For what it's worth, here is a trim implementation with an eye towards performance. It's much quicker than many other trim routines I've seen around. Instead of using iterators and std::finds, it uses raw c strings and indices. It optimizes the following special cases: size 0 string (do nothing), string with no whitespace to trim (do nothing), string with only trailing whitespace to trim (just resize the string), string that's entirely whitespace (just clear the string). And finally, in the worst case (string with leading whitespace), it does its best to perform an efficient copy construction, performing only 1 copy and then moving that copy in place of the original string.

void TrimString(std::string & str)
{ 
    if(str.empty())
        return;

    const auto pStr = str.c_str();

    size_t front = 0;
    while(front < str.length() && std::isspace(int(pStr[front]))) {++front;}

    size_t back = str.length();
    while(back > front && std::isspace(int(pStr[back-1]))) {--back;}

    if(0 == front)
    {
        if(back < str.length())
        {
            str.resize(back - front);
        }
    }
    else if(back <= front)
    {
        str.clear();
    }
    else
    {
        str = std::move(std::string(str.begin()+front, str.begin()+back));
    }
}

C++11：

int i{};
string s = " h e ll \t\n  o";
string trim = " \n\t";

while ((i = s.find_first_of(trim)) != -1)
    s.erase(i,1);

cout << s;

输出:

hello

也适用于空字符串

在c++中，你可以使用这个函数来修饰字符串

void trim(string& str){
   while(str[0] == ' ') str.erase(str.begin());
   while(str[str.size() - 1] == ' ') str.pop_back();
}

str.erase(0, str.find_first_not_of("\t\n\v\f\r ")); // left trim
str.erase(str.find_last_not_of("\t\n\v\f\r ") + 1); // right trim

在网上试试!

s.erase(0, s.find_first_not_of(" \n\r\t"));                                                                                               
s.erase(s.find_last_not_of(" \n\r\t")+1);
