Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #3099: Document that Space skip parser doesn't skip trailing spaces

status changed; resolution set

That's by design. If you need post-skipping you need to modify your grammar (appending eps_p forcing a post_skip to occur):

int_p >> eps_p;

BTW: in Spirit 2.1 we exposed this as an explicit parameter to parse.

HTH Regards Hartmut

summary Space skip parser doesn't skip trailing spaces → Document that Space skip parser doesn't skip trailing spaces

He isn't asking for it to be fixed, he's asking for it to be documented, as he was advised to do in #3086.

We won't go back to this documentation as it refers to an absolutely outdated version. Please switch to the newer versions of Spirit.
