const_reference suffix() const;		(since C++11)

Obtains a reference to the std::sub_match object representing the target sequence between the end of the entire match of the regular expression and the end of the target sequence

The behavior is undefined unless ready() == true

Parameters

(none)

Return value

Reference to the unmatched suffix.

Example

Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <regex>
#include <string>
 
int main()
{
    std::regex re("a(a)*b");
    std::string target("baaaby");
    std::smatch sm;
 
    std::regex_search(target, sm, re);
    std::cout << sm.suffix().str() << '\n';
}

Output:

y
