You can also use split_iterator.
#include <boost/algorithm/string/find_iterator.hpp>
#include <boost/algorithm/string/finder.hpp>
using namespace boost;
std::string str="module.foo1.port";
typedef split_iterator<std::string::iterator> string_split;
string_split it(str, token_finder(is_any_of(".")); // *it="module"
++it; // *it="foo1"
++it; // *it="port"
++it; // it.eof()==true it=string_split();
*it is an iterator_range, pointing to the input. You can easily convert it to a string
std::string match=copy_iterator_range<std::string>(*it);

Seem useful. I will see, how it can be added. Thanks for an idea.
