I'm not sure which library to use, or how to use them.
I have been told on freenode though, that what I want goes past the
capabilities of regex. I am skeptical though, which is (in part) why
I'm asking here.
So how could this be done in boost regex?
Thanks :)

Good morning,
I'm trying to parse a relatively simple pattern across 4 std::strings, extracting whatever the part which matches the pattern into a separate std::string.
In an abstracted sense, here is what I want: s1=<string1><consecutive number>, s2=<consecutive number><string2>, s3=<string1><consecutive number>, s4=<consecutive number><string2>
Less abstracted: s1="apple 1", s2="2 cheese", s3="apple 3", s4="4 cheese"
Actual contents: s1="lxckvjlxcjvlkjlkje xvcjxzlvcj wqrej lxvcjz ljvl;x czvouzxvcu j;ljfds apple 1 xcvljxclvjx oueroi xcvzlkjv; zjx", s2="xzljlkxvc jlkjxzvl jxcvljzx lvjlkj wre 2 cheese", s3="apple 3", s4="kxclvj xcvjlxk jcvljxlck jxcvl 4 cheese"
How would I perform this pattern matching?
Wouldn't Boost.Regex be more appropriate?
