I got unexpected results when I introduced qi::raw[] inside qi expressions. It seems that under certain circumstances qi::raw[] inhibits skip parser and thus fails to parse valid input. Furthermore, parse error only occurs if expression is stored in a rule - if expression is used directly as an argument to qi::parse everything works. Example attached.

Is this a bug? If not - could someone kindly explain the rationale for this behavior.

You need to give the rule the skip parser to use, otherwise it will inhibit skip parsing. try:

qi::rule rule( expr );

D'oh. Makes perfect sense. Thank you.
