Subject: Re: [Boost-users] Boost.regex expression construction

Hello Gevorg,

An example string: (4+1)*2 - I want to return true if the parentheses are
found and false if there are none or there is a partial match ( e.g. (2+2+1
will return false because there is only one parenthese and hence the
equation is incomplete).

Regards
