my code isn't actually correct i just did the idea again with new words and stuff

this is my code gain

Its because it doesn’t deduct to std::string but char[16]

A std::string literal should work

;compile

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <set>
#include <vector>

using namespace std;
using namespace std::literals;

template<typename Container>
struct RxMatcher{
    Container pattern;
    RxMatcher(const string&& pattern): pattern(pattern){}
    RxMatcher(const Container& pattern): pattern(pattern){}
};
int main(){
        auto matcher = RxMatcher("h((.[a-z])(lo))"s);
        auto matcher1 = RxMatcher(vector{1,  10, 20, 4});
        auto matcher2 = RxMatcher(vector{ 1.1, 10.0, 4.0 });
return 0;
}```

[proud void]

could you explain the solution?

it works but i am confused as fuck

[edgy sleet]

It is similar to doing
`auto matcher = RxMatcher(string("texty text"));

[proud void]

is it not possible to force the input to be string from my structure class instead of main

is there no way to deduct that inside the structure itself?

[edgy sleet]

Ou, right. Not changing main was part of the requirement

[proud void]

but still this is huge progress

[edgy sleet]

I don’t think it’s possible to CTAD a std::string template argument from a c string literal
