boost::xpressive::after — Look-behind assertion.
// In header: <boost/xpressive/regex_primitives.hpp> template<typename Expr> unspecified after(Expr const & expr);
after(expr) succeeds if the expr sub-expression would match at the current position minus N in the sequence, where N is the width of expr. expr is not included in the match. For instance, after("foo") succeeds if we are after a "foo". Look-behind assertions can be negated with the bit-complement operator.
