As a bonus, here is a code example of a split function and macro that is easy to use and where you can choose the container type :

#include 
#include 
#include 

#define split(str, delim, type) (split_fn>(str, delim))
 
template 
Container split_fn(const std::string& str, char delim = ' ') {
    Container cont{};
    std::size_t current, previous = 0;
    current = str.find(delim);
    while (current != std::string::npos) {
        cont.push_back(str.substr(previous, current - previous));
        previous = current + 1;
        current = str.find(delim, previous);
    }
    cont.push_back(str.substr(previous, current - previous));
    
    return cont;
}

int main() {
    
    auto test = std::string{"This is a great test"};
    auto res = split(test, ' ', std::vector);
    
    for(auto &i : res) {
        std::cout << i << ", "; // "this", "is", "a", "great", "test"
    }
    
    
    return 0;
}
