NAME

       PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <pcre2.h>

       const unsigned char *pcre2_maketables(pcre22_general_context *gcontext);

DESCRIPTION

       This  function  builds a set of character tables for character values less than 256. These
       can be passed to pcre2_compile() in a compile context in order to override  the  internal,
       built-in  tables (which were either defaulted or made by pcre2_maketables() when PCRE2 was
       compiled). See the pcre2_set_character_tables() page. You might want to do this if you are
       using a non-standard locale.

       If the argument is NULL, malloc() is used to get memory for the tables.  Otherwise it must
       point to a general context, which can supply pointers to  a  custom  memory  manager.  The
       function yields a pointer to the tables.

       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.
