Yes - but how can I use this from Visual C++ 6.0?

It's not too hard. &nbsp;I downloaded/built/wrote/ran<wbr /> in about 15 minutes.

Hi Experts,<br />
I would like to have a function like this in Visual C++ 6.0 in MFC<br />
RegexReplace(REGULAR_EXPRE<wbr />SSION, SOURCE, DESTINATION)<br />
<br />
I downloaded the boost Regex++ library but it doesn't look like they have an API for replace... Why wouldn't they? (is it because the replace is very often ambiguous)?<br />
<br />
Thanks for your help with this!<br />
Best,<br />

Regex string replace

Microsoft Visual C++ (often abbreviated as MSVC or VC++) is an integrated development environment (IDE) product from Microsoft for the C, C++, and C++/CLI programming languages. It features tools for developing and debugging C++ code, especially code written for the Microsoft Windows API, the DirectX API, and the Microsoft .NET Framework. Many applications require redistributable Visual C++ packages to function correctly and are often installed independently of applications, allowing multiple applications to make use of the package while only having to install it once

Visual C++.NET

A regular expression ("regex") is a sequence of characters that define a search pattern, mainly for use in pattern matching with strings, or string matching, i.e. "find and replace"-like operations. Regular expression processors are found in several search engines, search and replace dialogs of several word processors and text editors, and in the command lines of text processing utilities, such as sed and AWK. Many programming languages provide regular expression capabilities, some built-in, for example Perl, JavaScript, Ruby, AWK, and Tcl, and others via a standard library, for example .NET languages, Java, Python and C++ (since C++11). Most other languages offer regular expressions via a library.
