NAME¶
PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <pcre2.h>
pcre2_code *pcre2_code_copy(const pcre2_code *code);
DESCRIPTION¶
This function makes a copy of the memory used for a compiled pattern, excluding
any memory used by the JIT compiler. Without a subsequent call to
pcre2_jit_compile(), the copy can be used only for non-JIT matching.
The yield of the function is NULL if code is NULL or if sufficient
memory cannot be obtained.
There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API in the
pcre2api page and a description of the POSIX API in the
pcre2posix page.
