The following helper function is available to assist in the creation of a regular expression from an MFC/ATL string type:
template <class charT> basic_regex<charT> make_regex(const ATL::CSimpleStringT<charT>& s, ::boost::regex_constants::syntax_option_type f = boost::regex_constants::normal);
Effects: returns basic_regex<charT>(s.GetString(), s.GetString() + s.GetLength(),
f);
