I am looking for the 'C' or 'C++' source for a function to
perform a match of a string. This function would
use the syntax of regular expressions. This regular
expression matching would be similar to that used by
grep and sed.

Ideally it would look something like

if (match("^1([A-Z]*|[0-9]*)Z?",string_to_search) == 0)
	printf("match found ");

this would match a string_to_search if it
	began with a digit 1
        followed by any number of occurences of uppercase letters
	or by any number of occurrences of digits
	followed by zero or one occurrence of the letter Z

Thanks,

You should use a set of basic/container classes.
The library 'Tools.h++' of Rogue Wave give a response
to your problem and to many others.
