[Boost-users] [regex] boost::match_any

Hi.

 

Content = "abcab", expression = "a{1, 2}b?c" + "a{1, 2}b?c" (doubled
pattern). I think the expression can be simplified even more. As you can
see, there's only partial match, and

 

boost::regex_search(content, m, expression, boost::match_partial);

 

detects it. But

 

boost::regex_search(content, m, expression, boost::match_partial |
boost::match_any);

 

doesn't detect it. I expected that boost::match_any doesn't affect the main
result (found or not), but just can return different sub-results (where and
what found). Can you please explain where I'm wrong?

 

Environment: VC 8.0, boost 1.33.1.

 

Best regards,

Andriy Tylychko,
