I am trying something looking fairly reasonable:
string str1 = boost::replace_all_copy(str, 'x', '0');
It obviously fails to compile with:
error: no matching function for call to 'begin(const char&)' error: no matching function for call to 'end(const char&)'
as replace_all_copy() wants boost::ranges for the 2nd and 3rd parameters:
replace_all_copy( const SequenceT &, const Range1T &, const Range2T &);
and 'x' and '0' are not boost::ranges. Would that be sensible to extend boost::range along the following lines to allow string_algo to work with individual characters?
namespace boost { template<> struct range_iterator<char> { typedef char* type; }; template<> struct range_const_iterator<char> { typedef char const* type; }; namespace range_detail { template<> inline char const* boost_range_begin(char const& c) { return &c; } template<> inline char const* boost_range_end(char const& c) { return &c + 1; } } }
I think single_element_range(x) has been proposed several times. Maybe Neil could include it in range_ex? -Thorsten
