oracular (3) pcre2_code_copy_with_tables.3.gz

NAME

       PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <pcre2.h>

       pcre2_code *pcre2_code_copy_with_tables(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.   Unlike  pcre2_code_copy(), a separate copy of the character tables is also made, with the new
       code pointing to it. This memory will be automatically freed when pcre2_code_free() is called. 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.
