The new release of xpressive is available now. It represents a complete rewrite of all of xpressive's meta-programming. This is an important milestone on the way to 1.0. I encourage anybody who has been using xpressive to grab the latest version and let me know of any problems.
Looks nice! Could it be possible to write up a small template framework to create scanners for spirit with xpressive?
About a year ago, Hartmut Kaiser wrote an xpressive_p() parser for Spirit which wrapped an xpressive regex. It worked a bit like the current regex_p parser. Would that meet your needs? I don't know what became of it. Perhaps Hartmut knows.
Another thing: I always thought one should not use identifier names starting with an underscore like: "_b"?
IIRC, you're not allowed to use names like _B (one underscore followed by a capital) or names like __b (two underscores). I think names like _b are OK. If they're not, we're un trouble becuase Boost.Bind, Boost.Lambda and Boost.MPL use _1 as a placeholder. -- Eric Niebler Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
