.josh Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Hey all, So I'm currently trying to learn visual c++, using microsoft's visual c++ express ide. Am I wrong, or does vc++ not seem to have regex capability built into it? That's the impression I'm starting to get...so apparently I need to find a regex library or something, and I thought it would be really super awesome if I could use the pcre library, but apparently that's only officially released for *nix... So basically my overall goal here is I need to be able to do some regex stuff so can someone point me in the right direction? Ideally A direction that involves being as close to pcre as possible, but if that's not an option, it's all good.

corbin Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 The Windows libraries do not include a regexp engine, and as far as I know none of the other libraries used by VC are a regexp lib. Hrmmm, the first one that comes to mind besides PCRE is Boost.Regexp. Never personally used it, but I've used some other Boost stuff and the things I have used were all good. (So basically I'm suggesting it because it's the only one that I've actually ever heard of .)

.josh Posted August 2, 2009 Author Share Posted August 2, 2009 .net framework has a microsoft created regex library, but it requires me to either program through their visual studio or use c# express. Doesn't seem to be available for vc++ unless I have the actual visual studio :/ Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/168455-vc-regex/#findComment-888687 Share on other sites More sharing options...
