The 1.32 behaviour is compatible with Boost.Regex: boost::regex_token_iterator in splitting mode returns for "abc/abc/" -> 2 tokens This is compatible with the regex standardization proposal. I think the behaviour of boost::split should be the same.

However, a side effect seems to be that there is also one token returned for _empty_ strings, which is very questionable IMO! summary (if '/' is the separator): boost 1.32: "" -> 0 tokens "abc/abc" -> 2 tokens "abc/abc/" -> 2 tokens CVS: "" -> 1 token (!) "abc/abc" -> 2 tokens "abc/abc/" -> 3 tokens should be IMO: "" -> 0 tokens "abc/abc" -> 2 tokens "abc/abc/" -> 3 tokens Thoughts?
