Well, since I wrote that section of TR1 (as well as Boost.Regex), and also
helped proofread Pete's book, I guess you can blame me either way :-)
The relevent constructors taken straight out of TR1 are:
explicit basic_regex(const charT* p, flag_type f =
regex_constants::ECMAScript);
basic_regex(const charT* p, size_t len, flag_type f);
So the version that takes a length always needs 3 arguments (this is also
the case in the current draft for the next std).
HTH, John.
