Description
My name is Florin Trofin (ftrofin at _adobe_ dot com) and I work for Adobe Systems. We are using boost/regex 1.33.1 in one of our projects and we've encountered the following bug: The case insensitive modifier is supposed to make the string comparison case insensitive from the place at which it is encountered first till the end. In view of this, if we have "ABC abc aCb" as the text in which we will be doing search and if we have find string as "(?i)[bc]" then the expectation is that b/B/c/C will be found. But only b/c is found. If we have "(?i)a[bc]" as find string then ab/ac/AB/Ab/AC/Ac are found as expected. The only place which is having problem is when we specify character class[] immediately after case insensitive modifier "(?i)". We also have issues regarding character equivalence on Mac. Japanese character equivalence in general is not working i.e. if we have [[=x=]] where x is a Japanese character in hiragana or katakana then the equivalence is not matching correctly. Please let me know if you want me to open a separate bug on this issue. If you need more info please let me know. Thx!
