Basics

Examples

All sections in the reference present some real world examples. The examples use a common test harness to keep the example code as minimal and direct to the point as possible. The test harness is presented below.

Some includes:

#include <boost/spirit/include/lex.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix_core.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix_operator.hpp>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>

Our test functions:

This one tests token definitions.

Models

Predefined models include:

any literal string, e.g. "Hello, World",
a pointer/reference to a null-terminated array of characters
a std::basic_string<Char>

The namespace boost::spirit::traits is open for users to provide their own specializations.
