| <p> |
| The Boost.Regex algorithms and iterators are all iterator-based, with convenience |
| overloads of the algorithms provided that convert standard library string |
| types to iterator pairs internally. If you want to search a non-standard |
| string type then the trick is to convert that string into an iterator pair: |
| so far I haven't come across any string types that can't be handled this |
| way, even if they're not officially iterator based. Certainly any string |
| type that provides access to it's internal buffer, along with it's length, |
| can be converted into a pair of pointers (which can be used as iterators). |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Some non-standard string types are sufficiently common that wappers have |
| been provided for them already: currently this includes the ICU and MFC string |
| class types. |
