[Boost-users] regex: JavaScript RegEx to boost::regex conversion

Hello,
I have problem creating case less, global match and multi line regexes 
in boost and I'd like to ask for a few examples of equivalent 
(Javascript's RegEx <-> boost::regex) regex test

js:
string.match( /^abc/ )
string.match( /^abc/i)
string.match( /^abc/g)
string.match( /^abc/m)

c++
regex_match(string, regex("^abc"), match_default)
regex_match(string, regex("^abc"), match_default | icase) // <- is it 
correct?
regex_match(string, regex("^abc"), ?? ) //global match?
regex_match(string, regex("^abc"), ?? ) //multi line?

also I'd like to ask what are the proper namespaces/typedefs/enums I 
have to use for match flags (for example, there's 
boost::regex_constants::icase and boost::regex::icase etc...)

Thank you
