Hi John,

The first thing I would like to know is :

Is "{m_pimpl={.}}" a correct regular expression ?
If yes, what does it mean ?

TIA
Jean

I don't see anything in the changelog that would indicate an issue there, and those releases are so far back my memory certainly won't help!

So you will need to provide a test case - or at least a pattern and string for which regex_match fails for us to help further.
