C/C++ escaped quotes in strings? about cpp-peglib HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi Jerry,

I guess you can simply add another backslash to make the example work.

LITERAL_ESC_QUOTE  <- '\\"'

Is it what you expected?

Hope this helps.

P.S. You can try it on my online peglint at http://yhirose.github.io/peglint/. (It sometimes down thought...)
Also the command-line version of peglint is very useful to me. You can easily build it.

Hello Yuji. Thank you. That does indeed work.

// C string style escapes (hex and friends to come)
RULE <- '"' (ESC_QUOTE / LIT_CHAR)* '"'
LIT_CHAR <- (!["] .)
ESC_QUOTE  <- ('\\"' / '\\t' / '\\n')

 => "Hello \"J\" \t \" K \" \n " pass

Odd. I must have tested that variety a good number of times.
