NAME¶
PCRE - Perl-compatible regular expressions
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <pcre.h>
const unsigned char *pcre_maketables(void);
const unsigned char *pcre16_maketables(void);
const unsigned char *pcre32_maketables(void);
DESCRIPTION¶
This function builds a set of character tables for character values less than
256. These can be passed to
pcre[16|32]_compile() to override PCRE's
internal, built-in tables (which were made by
pcre[16|32]_maketables()
when PCRE was compiled). You might want to do this if you are using a
non-standard locale. The function yields a pointer to the tables.
There is a complete description of the PCRE native API in the
pcreapi
page and a description of the POSIX API in the
pcreposix page.
