Hello List,

Code:

boost::xpressive::sregex character = +_w;

Dies with compiler error:

/usr/include/boost/xpressive/proto/make_expr.hpp:832: error: expected nested-name-specifier before numeric constant /usr/include/boost/xpressive/proto/make_expr.hpp:832: error: expected ‘>’ before numeric constant /usr/include/boost/xpressive/proto/make_expr.hpp:837: error: type/value mismatch at argument 3 in template parameter list for ‘template struct boost::proto::result_of::make_expr’ /usr/include/boost/xpressive/proto/make_expr.hpp:837: error: expected a type, got ‘0’ /usr/include/boost/xpressive/proto/make_expr.hpp:837: error: expected initializer before ‘const’

It does not matter what the expression is.

Any idea why xpressive is not working?

Please send a *complete* example, along with what compiler and version you're using. -- Eric Niebler BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
