change ECMAScript value to Javascript (JavaScript is the original language) #181

Closed jmichae3 closed 6 years ago

jmichae3 commented 6 years ago

change ECMAScript value to Javascript (JavaScript is original language) JavaScript is a fuller language put out by Danny Goodman. it probably has a better regex spec. he might be looking for a better publisher. the other name is offending lots of developers, which are 1/4 the population.

?

jmichae3 commented 6 years ago

the value std::regex::ECMAScript needs to be changed to std::regex::JavaScript in both the manuals, source file names, and source code for std::regex. JavaScript is the language's name. and you will probably find that the EBNF for JavaScript is not missing entries.

Please, could you point the files in Boost.Thread that are wrong? I suspect you meant another library, isn't it?

jmichae3 commented 6 years ago

are you the man responsible for std::regex, or are you another man?

viboes commented 6 years ago

I'm the maintainer of Boost.Thread and you have created this issue in Boost.Thread not Boost.Regex.

Closing this issue. Create one for Boost.Regex

sorry, this is in thread, should be in std::regex.
