PCRE2_MAKETABLES(3)   DragonFly Library Functions Manual   PCRE2_MAKETABLES(3)

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.
