My platform is Mac OS X 10.5.2. I'm compiling and running via Xcode 3.0. Boost is version 1.34.1 (I installed it in the last two weeks). It was compiled on this machine by running "sudo make install", which installed it in /usr/local/include/boost. The library files are in /usr/local/lib. In my project specification, I specify those paths in my Library and Header search paths, and also add the linker option "-lboost_regex".
The following code gets a EXC_BAD_ACCESS error and never executes the catch blocks: (I realize that the pageSource doesn't actually have a <script> tag; That's because I don't know if the pages I'll be parsing will have one. However, the code still fails even if there is a <script>TESTSCRIPT</script> tag in there.)
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/regex.hpp>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main (int argc, char * const argv[]) {
string * pageSource = new string("<html><head><title>Some title</title></head><body>Hello, world!</body></html>");
try {
boost::regex tagRegex("(?:i)<script[^>]*>.*?</script[^>]*>");
string replaced = boost::regex_replace(*pageSource, tagRegex, " ", boost::match_default);
delete pageSource;
pageSource = new string(replaced);
} catch (exception &e) {
cout << e.what() << endl;
} catch ( ... ) {
cout << "Unknown exception" << endl;
}
cout << *pageSource << endl;
delete pageSource;
return 0;
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as this project is due tomorrow. =)
Thanks,
Dave

Ah, you're right. That was one of my attempts to fix it (which you

As for the inefficiency, this is my first stab at regex. =)
Here's the complete function as it stands (or doesn't, since it still
crashes):
void Page::removeScriptTags() {
boost::regex tagRegex("(?:i)<script[^>]*>.*?</script[^>]*>");
string source(*pageSource);
string replaced = boost::regex_replace(source, tagRegex, " ",
boost::match_default);
delete pageSource;
pageSource = new string(replaced);
}
That looks fine as it stands, but unless you can reduce it to a complete
test case that I can compile and run here it still doesn't help much. Also
what compiler, platform and Boost version are you using? Also please check
that there isn't some binary-compatibity issue going on: building your app
with different options than Boost was built with, or linking to a library
file that's from a different Boost version to the headers you're #including
etc...
John.
