- .SH DESCRIPTION
- .rs
- .sp
- This function compiles a regular expression into an internal form. It is the
- same as \fBpcre[16|32]_compile()\fP, except for the addition of the
- \fIerrorcodeptr\fP argument. The arguments are:
- .
- .sp
- \fIpattern\fP A zero-terminated string containing the
- regular expression to be compiled
- \fIoptions\fP Zero or more option bits
- \fIerrorcodeptr\fP Where to put an error code
- \fIerrptr\fP Where to put an error message
- \fIerroffset\fP Offset in pattern where error was found
- \fItableptr\fP Pointer to character tables, or NULL to
- use the built-in default
- .sp
- The option bits are:
- .sp
- PCRE_ANCHORED Force pattern anchoring
- PCRE_AUTO_CALLOUT Compile automatic callouts
- PCRE_BSR_ANYCRLF \eR matches only CR, LF, or CRLF
- PCRE_BSR_UNICODE \eR matches all Unicode line endings
- PCRE_CASELESS Do caseless matching
- PCRE_DOLLAR_ENDONLY $ not to match newline at end
- PCRE_DOTALL . matches anything including NL
- PCRE_DUPNAMES Allow duplicate names for subpatterns
- PCRE_EXTENDED Ignore white space and # comments
- PCRE_EXTRA PCRE extra features
- (not much use currently)
- PCRE_FIRSTLINE Force matching to be before newline
- PCRE_JAVASCRIPT_COMPAT JavaScript compatibility
- PCRE_MULTILINE ^ and $ match newlines within data
- PCRE_NEVER_UTF Lock out UTF, e.g. via (*UTF)
- PCRE_NEWLINE_ANY Recognize any Unicode newline sequence
- PCRE_NEWLINE_ANYCRLF Recognize CR, LF, and CRLF as newline
- sequences
- PCRE_NEWLINE_CR Set CR as the newline sequence
- PCRE_NEWLINE_CRLF Set CRLF as the newline sequence
- PCRE_NEWLINE_LF Set LF as the newline sequence
- PCRE_NO_AUTO_CAPTURE Disable numbered capturing paren-
- theses (named ones available)
- PCRE_NO_AUTO_POSSESS Disable auto-possessification
- PCRE_NO_START_OPTIMIZE Disable match-time start optimizations
- PCRE_NO_UTF16_CHECK Do not check the pattern for UTF-16
- validity (only relevant if
- PCRE_UTF16 is set)
- PCRE_NO_UTF32_CHECK Do not check the pattern for UTF-32
- validity (only relevant if
- PCRE_UTF32 is set)
- PCRE_NO_UTF8_CHECK Do not check the pattern for UTF-8
- validity (only relevant if
- PCRE_UTF8 is set)
- PCRE_UCP Use Unicode properties for \ed, \ew, etc.
- PCRE_UNGREEDY Invert greediness of quantifiers
- PCRE_UTF16 Run \fBpcre16_compile()\fP in UTF-16 mode
- PCRE_UTF32 Run \fBpcre32_compile()\fP in UTF-32 mode
- PCRE_UTF8 Run \fBpcre_compile()\fP in UTF-8 mode
- .sp
- PCRE must be built with UTF support in order to use PCRE_UTF8/16/32 and
- PCRE_NO_UTF8/16/32_CHECK, and with UCP support if PCRE_UCP is used.
- .P
- The yield of the function is a pointer to a private data structure that
- contains the compiled pattern, or NULL if an error was detected. Note that
- compiling regular expressions with one version of PCRE for use with a different
- version is not guaranteed to work and may cause crashes.
- .P
- There is a complete description of the PCRE native API in the
- .\" HREF
- \fBpcreapi\fP
- .\"
- page and a description of the POSIX API in the
- .\" HREF
- \fBpcreposix\fP
- .\"
- page.
