Hi, Compiling with Visual Studio 2015 update 2 both using default compiler and Clang 3.7 with Microsoft CodeGen, I get this error saying that

captures in not a member of boost::match_results ...

I believe this is a bug in 1_61_0

This can be seen in the captures_example.cpp

Regards, Juan Dent

As noted in the docs, this is an experimental feature which slows down matching, to enable it you need to define BOOST_REGEX_MATCH_EXTRA both when building the regex lib and when using it. Otherwise you will get the error above.

Can you please point me to where the docs are?

See http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_61_0/libs/regex/doc/html/boost_regex/captures.html

Pay particular attention to the last sentence.
