Hi,

I tried something like this...
auto m = match("a=42 b=32 c=22", regex(`^(?: \s* (\w+)=(\d+) )+$`, `x`));

This works fine...
`^(?: \s* (\w+)=(\d+) )+$`
... and if I duplicate the string x times, it also works...

But I'm hoping to parse a variable number of these 'pairs'... so I tried
grouping the pairs in (?:)+ but this way it saves only the last pair?

Anyone got an idea?

Yes, just use the global flag and drop  ( )+.

Then this foreach ought to save the day:
foreach( m; match(..., `\s* (\w+)=(\d+) `, `gx`))
{
        //some stuff with m[1] & m[2]
}

Throw in some experiment w.r.t. the end of line and you should be fine.
