Hello. I'm trying to incorporate Unicode regex searching in a little app I'm doing. I'm building using XCode 1.2 on MacOSX 10.3.4. The problem I'm having is that I can't seem to get boost's regex to incorporate unicode or wide-character support. In
there is the line #define BOOST_NO_CWCHAR which seems to disable allowance for unicode by causing boost::wregex and boost::wcmatch symbols to not be typedef-ed. A test app. shows that these symbols are defined when I build using Codewarrior. So I'm wondering how to get unicode support for regex using XCode (gcc) on a MacOSX machine. Any suggestions? Are these symbols correctly defined? I'm not exactly sure which symbols you're referring to, but... The BOOST_NO_CWCHAR is defined subsequent to a comment in macos.hpp which states: "// Using the Mac OS X system BSD-style C library" Thus, I'm not sure if BOOST_NO_CWCHAR is defined "correctly" since I'm not sure what the justification is based on the #define's preceding comment. As for the boost::wregex and boost::wcmatch symbols, if BOOST_NO_CWCHAR is defined, then BOOST_NO_WREGEX is subsequently defined, which results in

Can you comment them out and still get a clean compile? If I comment out the #define BOOST_NO_CWCHAR line regex compiles with no errors using the gcc.mak file in
directory.
I hope this helps. Thanks, Steve.
