Regex for UChar or short on linux-x64

[towi]

On my Linux-x64 machine, where sizeof(wchar_t) is 4 I want to use regex for ICU UnicodeStrings. Or, in fact on zero-terminated UChar* buffers. 

But the following code crashes with a "bad_cast" exception:

-----------------------------------

#include <boost/regex/v4/regex.hpp> 

typedef unsigned short UChar; // UChar from ICU
typedef boost::basic_regex<UChar> uregex;

int main()
{
    UChar ubuf[] = { 'a', 'b', 'c', 0}; 
    uregex re;
    re.assign(ubuf);
}

---------------------------------------

boost version is 1.35. g++ is 4.1.2.


tschau, towi.

Please refer to the documentation here: http://www.boost.org/libs/regex/doc/icu_strings.html and follow the instructions for working with ICU data types.

Thanks a lot! Works. Sorry I missed that.
