你可以尝试使用find函数:

string str ("There are two needles in this haystack.");
string str2 ("needle");

if (str.find(str2) != string::npos) {
//.. found.
} 

#include <algorithm>        // std::search
#include <string>
using std::search; using std::count; using std::string;

int main() {
    string mystring = "The needle in the haystack";
    string str = "needle";
    string::const_iterator it;
    it = search(mystring.begin(), mystring.end(), 
                str.begin(), str.end()) != mystring.end();

    // if string is found... returns iterator to str's first element in mystring
    // if string is not found... returns iterator to mystring.end()

if (it != mystring.end())
    // string is found
else
    // not found

return 0;
}

如果字符串的大小相对较大(数百字节或更多)，并且c++17可用，您可能需要使用Boyer-Moore-Horspool搜索器(示例来自cppreference.com):

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <algorithm>
#include <functional>

int main()
{
    std::string in = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit,"
                     " sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua";
    std::string needle = "pisci";
    auto it = std::search(in.begin(), in.end(),
                   std::boyer_moore_searcher(
                       needle.begin(), needle.end()));
    if(it != in.end())
        std::cout << "The string " << needle << " found at offset "
                  << it - in.begin() << '\n';
    else
        std::cout << "The string " << needle << " not found\n";
}

如果不想使用标准库函数，下面是一种解决方案。

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

bool CheckSubstring(std::string firstString, std::string secondString){
    if(secondString.size() > firstString.size())
        return false;

    for (int i = 0; i < firstString.size(); i++){
        int j = 0;
        // If the first characters match
        if(firstString[i] == secondString[j]){
            int k = i;
            while (firstString[i] == secondString[j] && j < secondString.size()){
                j++;
                i++;
            }
            if (j == secondString.size())
                return true;
            else // Re-initialize i to its original value
                i = k;
        }
    }
    return false;
}

int main(){
    std::string firstString, secondString;

    std::cout << "Enter first string:";
    std::getline(std::cin, firstString);

    std::cout << "Enter second string:";
    std::getline(std::cin, secondString);

    if(CheckSubstring(firstString, secondString))
        std::cout << "Second string is a substring of the frist string.\n";
    else
        std::cout << "Second string is not a substring of the first string.\n";

    return 0;
}

从这个网站上的这么多答案中，我没有找到一个明确的答案，所以在5-10分钟内我自己找到了答案。 但这可以在两种情况下实现:

要么你知道你在字符串中搜索的子字符串的位置 要么你不知道它的位置，然后逐字符搜索它……

所以，让我们假设我们在字符串“abcde”中搜索子字符串“cd”，我们使用c++中最简单的substr内置函数

1:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

    using namespace std;
int i;

int main()
{
    string a = "abcde";
    string b = a.substr(2,2);    // 2 will be c. Why? because we start counting from 0 in a string, not from 1.

    cout << "substring of a is: " << b << endl;
    return 0;
}

2:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;
int i;

int main()
{
    string a = "abcde";

    for (i=0;i<a.length(); i++)
    {
        if (a.substr(i,2) == "cd")
        {
        cout << "substring of a is: " << a.substr(i,2) << endl;    // i will iterate from 0 to 5 and will display the substring only when the condition is fullfilled 
        }
    }
    return 0;
}

是什么

string response = "hello world";
string findMe = "world";

if(response.find(findMe) != string::npos)
{
     //found
}
