ok so i'll try the 1.34, any idea of the size of the binary (.lib/.a) for that feature (just the necessary part of ICU+boost::regex?). i'd be really happy if it could take a few dozen KB :-)
If you statically link to Boost.Regex it adds about 50K to your executable, if you dynamically link the .so is a lot larger though. Enabling ICU support doesn't change the size of Boost.Regex much, but ICU itself is a big binary: there's no way around that since if you actually want Unicode support then the Unicode character database is *big*.
John. Argh, the database is as large as my app... Is it imaginable to use the regex stuff with my own traits class (maybe supporting a few less stuff thann ICU??)
