I'm looking for a robust, easy-to-use, regular expression evaluator for native C++, either platform-independent or Windows-specific.

Requirements:

Can't use Boost or ACE regex libraries (unfortunately)
Can't use .NET Regex (or any managed code)

The main requirement is that it should be standalone and open."

"C++11 now includes the support of regular expressions.
It will be platform independent. You just need a recent compiler.
Check the following list to know which one to use.

Hope it helps"

"try libpcre

If you're stuck on windows they have a windows port which should work. I know e-texteditor uses it, so at least that's proof it works :-)"

If you use Visual Studio you can use Visual C++ 2008 Feature Pack Release, this implements some of TR1, and includes regular expression parsing. Get it

Qt has also a nice Regular Expression implementation QRegExp. It is also platform independent.
