Subject: Re: [Boost-users] problem with xpressive sregex and stl::list::iterator

thanks, I know the reason now.
it is because I have declared const on the member function where I iterate the sregex object.
after I removed the const declaration, the compile passed. but I am still curious, I am not changing
anything when I iterate the sregex object, why I cannot use the const declareation. To make it clear,
I give a more complete formulation of the problem I encountered.
class A
{
public:
bool Match(const string& str) const;
private:
list<sregex> mRegexs;
}
bool A::Match(const string& str) const
{
std::list<boost::xpressive::sregex>::iterator it;
for (it=mRegexs.begin(); it != mRegexs.end(); it++)
{
if (regex_match(str, *it))
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
in the above code, if I removed "const" declaration on the member function Match, the compilation passed, otherwise, there is error message like the following:
myclass.cpp:57: error: no match for 'operator=' in 'it = ((const Myclass*)this)->Myclass::mRegexs.std::list<_Tp, _Alloc>::begin [with _Tp = boost::xpressive::basic_regex<__gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<const char*, std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > > >, _Alloc = std::allocator<boost::xpressive::basic_regex<__gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<const char*, std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > > > >]()'
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/../../../../include/c++/4.1.2/bits/stl_list.h:112: note: candidates are: std::_List_iterator<boost::xpressive::basic_regex<__gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<const char*, std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > > > >& std::_List_iterator<boost::xpressive::basic_regex<__gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<const char*, std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > > > >::operator=(const std::_List_iterator<boost::xpressive::basic_regex<__gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<const char*, std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > > > >&)
as for the problem with using vector together with sregex, here is what I found on web
