Thanks for that answer. But as far as I see it no, Spirit.Qi is not part of boost 1.36? At least docs do not state anything, but I can find includes for Qi. I will give it a try. On Sun, Dec 6, 2009 at 2:24 AM, OvermindDL1 wrote:

You should not be using Spirit.Classic though, instead use Spirit.Qi, which is much better tested and much faster. The same code in Spirit.Qi is:

+((+alnum)[some_callback_func] >> "->")

Or is you just want to stuff all the strings in a vector:

std::string input("a->b->c->"); std::vector result;

parse(input.begin(),input.end(),+(+alnum >> "->"),result);

result will be an array of: ["a","b","c"]

Also, if you only want the -> to be between strings and not following, use this:

(+alnum)%"->"

I tried it as well, but it nether worked. Unfortunately I have to define a grammar and cannot pass strings around.

What I wonder, even (+range_p('a','z'))[some_callback] parses a->b->c-> as the whole sequence Many thanks for the answer. Best Regards, Ovanes

Correct, Spirit 2.0 and higher has four parts, Classic (what you are using), QI (the newer much fixed classic), Karma (does the opposite of Qi), and Lex (a lexer). Boost 1.36 is old, and I know Spirit.Classic has bugs back in that old version that have been fixed later on (even in the latest Boost 1.41 Spirit.Classic still has some more bugs fixed, it is still being kept up even if Spirit.Qi has fully replaced it in every way). You *really* need to update. Spirit2.0 came out in Boost 1.39. Spirit2.1 came out in Boost 1.41. Spirit2.2 should come out in Boost 1.42 hopefully (it is backwards compatible still, just has even more functionality, like being able to define your own auto-type conversions).
