Hi,

 

I experience big troubles with regex matching. The code below should obviously match 'abc', but does not, because it tries to match the whole string. If r='abcdefg', then match is successfull, but if it is only 'abc' and input is 'abcdef', the match always fails as described below.

 

boost::match_results<std::string::const_iterator> m;

std::string inp = "abcdefg";

boost::regex r = "abc";
if (!boost::regex_match(inp, m, r, boost::match_default))

   // always fails, don't know why

 

How can I successfully match 'abc' agains input 'abcdefg'?

 

Thank you very much in advance,

Kalin
