Hi Michael -

Parsing NMEA is about as easy as you have described in english.

rule = lit('$') >> ~char_('*') >> lit('$') >> hex >> lit("\r\n");

Pretty straightforward. How about the wrinkle of enforcing the NMEA 2-hex-digit checksum?

It ends up that the Spirit numeric parser is customizable. Simply create the parser you want. For example:

qi::uint_parser< unsigned, 16, 2, 2 > nmea_hex_p;

creates a parser that will synthesize unsigned values that are parsed as base 16 and must have exactly 2 digits.

rule >> lit('$') >> ~char_('*') >> '*' >> nmea_hex_p >> "\r\n";

Well, whaddaya know. Poifect! Thanks!
