pcre2_maketables(3) Library Functions Manual pcre2_maketables(3)
NAME
PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)
SYNOPSIS
#include <pcre2.h>
pcre2_maketables(3) *gcontext);
DESCRIPTION
This function builds a set of character tables for character code
points that are 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(3) 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.
