[regex] - bk_parens and bk_braces missing from 1.33.x
Resending due to no response since 4th Feb: It states in history.html for regex 1.33.0 that "some of the more esoteric options have now been removed, so there is the possibility that existing code may fail to compile: however equivalent functionality should still be available". I suppose bk_parens and bk_braces could be considered esoteric, but I cannot find any equivalent functionality. Is that intentional? Thanks, Keith MacDonald

Apologies for the slow response I missed the first one. Aren't the options you want just the same as the POSIX-Basic syntax: boost::regex e("\\(abc\\)\\{1,2\\}", boost::regex::basic); See file:///c:/data/boost/develop/boost/libs/regex/doc/syntax_basic.html For the full syntax and the variations on it (like emacs style regexes).

Yes, but because they could previously be individually selected, I gave the
users of my application the option of setting bk_parens and/or bk_braces,
separately from choosing POSIX or Perl semantics. It seems that syntax and
semantics are no longer orthogonal. I don't have strong feelings about
that, but just wanted to check that it was intentional, before hacking the
application.
Thanks,

OK understood, but if you use Basic-style syntax with Perl like extensions you can get into trouble particularly if you try and match non-greedy repeats POSIX style. So, I guess what I'm saying is it avoid a whole lot of confusion all round if you stick to one of the standard syntaxes or their variations: basic, extended, perl, emacs etc. My guess is your users would find it less confusing as well - most people (all of them?) would want regexes that follow whatever form they've used before, rather than inventing their own new syntax. You can still choose whether to use Perl-style matching or POSIX-style leftmost longest matching independently of the syntax type, but I'd recomend that you don't, or at least that you don't try and use Perl syntax with leftmost-longest rules. The other way around however: POSIX syntax with Perl matching rules is OK (and is more or less what emacs does). John.
That makes sense, thanks. I'll cut out those options and hope nobody
complains!

I am trying to build and run the boost python example: http://www.boost.org/libs/python/doc/tutorial/doc/html/python/hello.html But after I run the bjam command, how can I import that to my python environment on Linux?
