| .TH PCRE2_MAKETABLES 3 "21 October 2014" "PCRE2 10.00" |
| .SH NAME |
| PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API) |
| .SH SYNOPSIS |
| .rs |
| .sp |
| .B #include <pcre2.h> |
| .PP |
| .SM |
| .B const unsigned char *pcre2_maketables(pcre22_general_context *\fIgcontext\fP); |
| . |
| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| .rs |
| .sp |
| This function builds a set of character tables for character values less than |
| 256. These can be passed to \fBpcre2_compile()\fP in a compile context in order |
| to override the internal, built-in tables (which were either defaulted or made |
| by \fBpcre2_maketables()\fP when PCRE2 was compiled). See the |
| .\" HREF |
| \fBpcre2_set_character_tables()\fP |
| .\" |
| page. You might want to do this if you are using a non-standard locale. |
| .P |
| If the argument is NULL, \fBmalloc()\fP 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. |
| .P |
| There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API in the |
| .\" HREF |
| \fBpcre2api\fP |
| .\" |
| page and a description of the POSIX API in the |
| .\" HREF |
| \fBpcre2posix\fP |
| .\" |
| page. |
