  58 <p>
  59         The Boost.Regex algorithms and iterators are all iterator-based, with convenience
  60         overloads of the algorithms provided that convert standard library string
  61         types to iterator pairs internally. If you want to search a non-standard
  62         string type then the trick is to convert that string into an iterator pair:
  63         so far I haven't come across any string types that can't be handled this
  64         way, even if they're not officially iterator based. Certainly any string
  65         type that provides access to it's internal buffer, along with it's length,
  66         can be converted into a pair of pointers (which can be used as iterators).
  67       </p>
  68 <p>
  69         Some non-standard string types are sufficiently common that wrappers have
  70         been provided for them already: currently this includes the ICU and MFC string
  71         class types.
