Hello,I am quite new to Boost Xpressive, I am using C++ on Visual Studio 2013 and Boost 1_58_0I need to clean up some text from all HTML tagsI an trying to use this regex:wsregex html_any_tag_regex = wsregex::compile("^([^<]*)?<([A-Za-z][A-Za-z0-9]*)[^>]*>(.+)<\\/(\\2)>(.*)?$");this regex causes compilation error: error C2664: 'int boost::mpl::assertion_failed(boost::mpl::assert::type)' : cannot convert argument 1 from 'boost::mpl::failed ************boost::is_same::* ***********' to 'boost::mpl::assert::type'I tested my regex here:http://www.myezapp.com/apps/dev/regexp/show.wsand it is parsed exactly to my needs.What am I doing wrong?Thank youMia -- View this message in context: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/xpressive-regex-to-catch-HTML-generic-tag...
