Hi Folks, I'm a newbie gingerly moving over from MFC. I have built and installed regex from the boost_1_32_0 package without any obvious problem. Now I've included the simplest use of regex taken from the overview and: a) I get a compile error in regbase.hpp. As a temporary workaround I've tried using V3 instead and: b) I get a link error (debug & release) Can someone help me overcome this please? Many thanks. I have: #include <boost/cregex.hpp> //#define BOOST_REGEX_V3 #include <boost/regex.hpp> using namespace boost; ... // regexp test const std::string s = "sdflsjhslad"; static const boost::regex e("(\\d{4}[- ]){3}\\d{4}"); if (regex_match(s, e)) ASSERT(true); else; ASSERT(true); ... which gives the following: Compiling...
