[Qt-interest] RegExp If-Statements

[Joshua Grauman]

Actually, I've been looking around and it seems that ICU4C may be a good 
fit here. It has a very permissive license, is in C++, handles Unicode 
(Utf-16 natively), and supports more features than QRegExp 
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_regular_expression_engines). I 
remember hearing (on this list?) that if a better engine was found, the 
one used in QRegExp could be switched out... Any chance this could happen?
