## Function erase_regex_copy

boost::algorithm::erase_regex_copy — Erase regex algorithm.

## Synopsis

    template<typename OutputIteratorT, typename CollectionT, typename CharT,
             typename RegexTraitsT, typename RegexAllocatorT>
      OutputIteratorT
      erase_regex_copy(OutputIteratorT Output, const CollectionT & Input,
                       const reg_expression< CharT, RegexTraitsT, RegexAllocatorT > & Rx,
                       match_flag_type Flags = match_default);
    template<typename SequenceT, typename CharT, typename RegexTraitsT,
             typename RegexAllocatorT>
      SequenceT erase_regex_copy(const SequenceT & Input,
                                 const reg_expression< CharT, RegexTraitsT, RegexAllocatorT > & Rx,
                                 match_flag_type Flags = match_default);

## Description

Remove a substring matching given regex from the input. The result is a modified copy of the input. It is returned as a sequence or copied to the output iterator.

Parameters

Flags

  Regex options

Input

  An input string

Output

  An output iterator to which the result will be copied

Rx

  A regular expression

Returns: An output iterator pointing just after the last inserted character or a modified copy of the input
Notes: The second variant of this function provides the strong exception-safety guarantee
