Answer 1

It will work as you expect, if you cleared the underlying string buffer of <ss2> at line 12

ss2.str( string {} );

clear() method apparently was meant to clear the state flags e.g. error flags etc. It wasn't meant to clear the underlying string buffer.

Lisa's way is simpler I think ...

Answer 2

Manav Roy
clear your ss2 and ss
ss2.clear();
ss2.str(string{});
see my comment on your Hello Bro example.

Answer 3

// I think ss2 needs to be a string and go into the head of the while-loop

#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
string s="hello how are you";
stringstream ss(s);
string ss2;
while(ss>>ss2)
{
cout << ss2 << endl;
}
return 0;
}

I couldn't figure out what was wrong with your code, it goes crashing with a message I couldn't understand.
