boost.regex and submatches

Look more closely at your expression: it has only *two* marked sub-expressions, $1 gets "overwritten" each time it matches. - John Maddock http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/john_maddock/

boost.regex and submatches
by markus_schoepflin 13 Dec '01

13 Dec '01

Hi all, I'm trying to match strings of the form "a&b&c&d" with the following expression: "(?:([^&]+)&)*([^&]+)". This nicely matches the whole string but instead of giving me the submatches "a", "b", "c" and "d" I just get "c" and "d". Could anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Sample code, tested with MSVC6SP5 and Boost 1.26.0: #include <boost/regex.hpp> #include <string> #include <iostream> void main(void) { const char *input ="a&b&c&d"; const boost::regex syntax("(?:([^&]+)&)*([^&]+)"); boost::cmatch matches; if(boost::regex_match(input, matches, syntax)) { for (boost::cmatch::size_type i = 0; i < matches.size(); ++i) std::cout << static_cast<std::string>(matches[i]) << '\n'; } } Tia, Markus

However, there is support in Boost for what you're trying to do - through boost::any. Like I said before, the solution will not be very clean, but it will work. The code snippet below seems to do what you're asking for: #include <iostream> #include <algorithm> #include <vector> #include <Boost\Any.hpp> class A { public: virtual void func1() { std::cout << "A::func1()\n"; }; }; class B : public A { public: void func1() { std::cout << "B::func1()\n"; }; void funcB() { std::cout << "B::funcB()\n"; }; }; class C : public A { public: void func1() { std::cout << "C::func1()\n"; }; void funcC() { std::cout << "C::funcC()\n"; }; }; typedef std::vector<boost::any> AnyVector; void DoStuffWithAny(boost::any& a) { // Try with a B if ( B* pB = boost::any_cast<B>(&a) ) { pB->func1(); pB->funcB(); } // Try with a C else if ( C* pC = boost::any_cast<C>(&a) ) { pC->func1(); pC->funcC(); } // Try with an A else if ( A* pA = boost::any_cast<A>(&a) ) { pA->func1(); } } void DoStuffWithAnyPointer(boost::any& a) { // Try with a B if ( B** ppB = boost::any_cast<B*>(&a) ) { (*ppB)->func1(); (*ppB)->funcB(); } // Try with a C else if ( C** ppC = boost::any_cast<C*>(&a) ) { (*ppC)->func1(); (*ppC)->funcC(); } // Try with an A else if ( A** ppA = boost::any_cast<A*>(&a) ) { (*ppA)->func1(); } } int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { AnyVector aVector; A a; B b; C c; aVector.push_back(a); aVector.push_back(b); aVector.push_back(c); // Do interesting things std::for_each(aVector.begin(), aVector.end(), DoStuffWithAny); AnyVector anotherVector; anotherVector.push_back(new A); anotherVector.push_back(new B); anotherVector.push_back(new C); // Do interesting things std::for_each(anotherVector.begin(), anotherVector.end(), DoStuffWithAnyPointer); return 0; } Another approach would be to provide adapters, but I'm guessing that wouldn't be worth the trouble.

Hi All! I'm using tokenizer in a project. Is there a way to get the number of tokens that have been tokenized? Thanks Paul Paul Grenyer pjgrenyer(a)iee.org

Boost.Threads Win32 Implementation
by bkarsjens 11 Dec '01

11 Dec '01

The first thing I discovered when trying to get threads working is that the -mthreads option was not being used in jam. I added the following to the gcc-tools.jam file. I'm not totally sure it's right -- it's needed for mingw32, but I don't know if it is necessary for cygwin. if $(NT) { flags gcc CFLAGS <threading>multi : -mthreads ; flags gcc LINKFLAGS <threading>multi : -mthreads ; } Adding that let's gdb actually work on it... It doesn't crash deep in the bowels of thread exiting in some kernel library routine. Although it still crashes in on_thread_exit doing handlers->push_front(func). Actually, it crashes in some STL stuff, but that's I'm not sure why, I'm not that good with gdb yet. After digging through the implementation of threadmon.cpp, I realized that (unless I missed something) on_thread_exit was always called with the same argument, which is the address of cleanup in tss.cpp. Therefore all of the stuff in threadmon.cpp for keeping a list of functions registered with on_thread exit were not really needed, it would always have a list of the same pointer. So why not just keep that pointer and call it on thread exit. I also discovered that DllMain wasn't getting called at all because it wasn't defined as extern "C". This drastically simplifies threadmon.cpp: // threadmon.cpp : Defines the entry point for the DLL application. // #define BOOST_THREADMON_EXPORTS #include "threadmon.hpp" #ifdef BOOST_HAS_WINTHREADS #define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN // Exclude rarely-used stuff from Windows headers #include <windows.h> #ifdef BOOST_MSVC # pragma warning(disable : 4786) #endif typedef void (__cdecl * handler)(void); namespace { handler exit_handler; } #if defined(__BORLANDC__) #define DllMain DllEntryPoint #endif extern "C" BOOL APIENTRY DllMain(HANDLE module, DWORD reason, LPVOID) { switch (reason) { case DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH: case DLL_THREAD_ATTACH: break; case DLL_THREAD_DETACH: case DLL_PROCESS_DETACH: { if (exit_handler) (*exit_handler)(); } break; } return TRUE; } int on_thread_exit(void (__cdecl * func)(void)) { exit_handler = func; return 0; } #endif // BOOST_HAS_WINTHREADS Note that the above was not copied directly, but has had some editing. I think I transcribed it correctly, but maybe I missed a semicolon or something. Also, in tss.cpp, cleanup may be called without any handlers registered... I'm not sure if this was always the case, or if I introduced this case, so the cleanup function needs to do an if(handlers) check before actually trying to call them. And now the tests pass! Wheee! One more thing. I'm still not convinced for the need of the dll. The issue is needing to know when a thread has exited, and I think that could be done by an object that was destructed in a thread-proxy function. Since you are already using a thread_proxy function, I'm wondering if you considered this approach and if so, why you rejected it.

No, it's not safe. It's there for a good reason though - some compilers does not support the (required) friend declaration. Bjorn Karlsson [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

This object has a member function write but not the class any itself? I have another comment more general about the any class The declaration placeholder * content; in the any class might be public or private depending on the value of the value of the define BOOST_NO_MEMBER_TEMPLATE_FRIENDS.
