Hello,

i am currently in the process of refactoring some old code into 
c++11/14. Part of that code is a regex-like pattern matching mechanism, 
which (due to compatibility reasons) should be kept in place for now.

However, in preparation of a future transition to std::regex, i would 
like to go ahead, and store the results in a std::match_results object.

Unfortunately, i can't find any setter methods or constructors in this 
class, except for the default and copy constructors. Is there any 
(preferably portable) way to set the contents (sub-matches, prefix, 
suffix) of a std::match_results object without going through 
std::basic_regex?

TIA,
Hergen
