Hi, John I have a string splited by "\0" ( it means {'\\','0'}, the bellow is the same ), for example: "\0xxxx\0yyyy\0zzzz\0". And there is some special situation like "\0xxx\\0\0yyy\\\0zzz\0" , you can think it is similarly to c style string, the two '\\' means a single '\' and the '\\0' is not a spliter. i want to split them in to 0) xxx\\0 1) yyy\\ c) zzz how can i do it in boost::regex? thx,all

a regex expression: (?<=[^\\](?:\\\\)*)\\0 can work well in c#, but error in boost::regex why?

Variable length lookbehind isn't supported in Boost.Regex (or in Perl for that matter).
