Hi everyone, I need a help in creating a regular expression, I need to select only "Sentences" in String using Regex so I wrote the Code ..

*boost::regex re( "(\\S.+?[.!?])(?=\\s+|$)" );*

Wouldn't it be easier and far more efficient to use boost split and provide a stateful delimiter, that keeps track of the last 3 chars encountered, and does not return true upon encountering a "." if the last 3 or 2 chars match any of the following sequences: Dr,Mr,Mrs etc..
