I'm sorry, I should have mentioned that I am using the Boost Spirit library and I am asking for help with the grammer for the parser.

Subject: How to skip leading characters
To: boost-users@lists.boost.org


I have an input text file that I read line by line into a standard string.

 

Each line has the following format:

Name1  00 12 3a 4c ff …

Name2  33 55 5c dd ee …

 

How do create the grammer to skip the leading NameX on each line and put the hex digits into a vector?

 

If the lines had a more complex format such that anything could appear before NameX for example:

 

Bla bla bla : 0a .bb cc  NameX 01 22 aa dd 33 44 50 00 …

 

How could I once again get the hex digits after the name into a vector?
