Regex Libraries giving errors

Hi, I am trying to use the regex library (regex_match in particular) I included "boost/regex.hpp". I get the following errors when compiling my code. g++ -W -Wall -Wpointer-arith -O3 -g -pipe -D_REENTRANT -DACE_HAS_AIO_CALLS -D_GNU_SOURCE -I/usr/local/ACE_wrappers -DACE_HAS_EXCEPTIONS -D__ACE_INLINE__ -I/usr/local/ACE_wrappers -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include/boost-1_31 -DACE_NTRACE=1 -D__USE_REG_EXPR -c -o .obj/FTP_Task.o FTP_Task.cpp In file included from /usr/local/include/boost-1_31/boost/cregex.hpp:30, from /usr/local/include/boost-1_31/boost/regex/v4/regex.hpp:25, from /usr/local/include/boost-1_31/boost/regex.hpp:34, from FTP_Task.h:19, from FTP_Task.cpp:1: /usr/local/include/boost-1_31/boost/regex/v4/cregex.hpp:75: error: syntax error before numeric constant /usr/local/include/boost-1_31/boost/regex/v4/cregex.hpp:96: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of `reg_comp_flags' with no type /usr/local/include/boost-1_31/boost/regex/v4/cregex.hpp:100: error: syntax error before numeric constant /usr/local/include/boost-1_31/boost/regex/v4/cregex.hpp:103: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of `reg_exec_flags' with no type make[1]: *** [.obj/FTP_Task.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/bipuser/nBIP-9.0/src' make: *** [NBIP] Error 2 Can sme please shed some light on the problem. I am only using the regex_match function. I create an expression object, and use regex_match to match against it. Thanks in advance for any help. Corey

I suspect that you are including the platforms

I suspect that you are including the platforms
(possibly indirectly) before including . That currently causes conflicts: there is a fix in the works, but it involves a complete restructuring of Boost.Regex that won't be released until Boost-1.33 (that's the release after next).

I just check my includes. I only include "boost/filesystem/operations.hpp", boost/filesystem/path.hpp, and boost/regex.hpp. I didn't see where the filesystem headers include regex headers. So I don't think that I am including regex.h before regex.hpp.

You will probably have to preprocess your source to figure out what's
including it. There is no fix at present, except to prevent it's inclusion
before

. What platform are you on BTW? John. _______________________________________________ Boost-users mailing list Boost-users@lists.boost.org http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users
I am on Fedora Core 2. Ok I will try that and see what happens. Thanks again. I hope this will solve it, because I really need this for a project at work. :)

I ran my source through the preprocessor, and saw that some of my ACE headers were including regex.h I rearrange the headers so that boost headers were included first, and my source compiled. Thanks very much for the heads up.
