Have you thought of using strtok() and detecting the quotes yourself?
If a token ever has an odd number quotation marks in it, then you can get
the remaining chars of the quoted string with a call to strtok(NULL,"\""),
like getting the second half of the quoted string. The two tokens making
up the quoted string can be recombined by replacing the '\0' terminating
the first of the tokens with a ' '. Since the terminating quotation mark
will be replaced with '\0' in this case, any token with an odd number of
quote marks in it will be understood to have a terminating quote mark
appended.
Will the log file ever contain an unmatched quotation mark?
Wi****ng a better idea would come to me, but alas, I am not an expert
either.
