README file for PCRE (Perl-compatible regular expression library) ----------------------------------------------------------------- The latest release of PCRE is always available in three alternative formats from: ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/programming/pcre/pcre-xxx.tar.gz ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/programming/pcre/pcre-xxx.tar.bz2 ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/programming/pcre/pcre-xxx.zip There is a mailing list for discussion about the development of PCRE at pcre-dev@exim.org. You can access the archives and subscribe or manage your subscription here: https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/pcre-dev Please read the NEWS file if you are upgrading from a previous release.

There are three sets of functions, one for the 8-bit library, which processes strings of bytes, one for the 16-bit library, which processes strings of 16-bit values, and one for the 32-bit library, which processes strings of 32-bit values. The distribution also includes a set of C++ wrapper functions (see the pcrecpp man page for details), courtesy of Google Inc., which can be used to call the 8-bit PCRE library from C++. In addition, there is a set of C wrapper functions (again, just for the 8-bit library) that are based on the POSIX regular expression API (see the pcreposix man page). These end up in the library called libpcreposix. Note that this just provides a POSIX calling interface to PCRE; the regular expressions themselves still follow Perl syntax and semantics. The POSIX API is restricted, and does not give full access to all of PCRE's facilities. The header file for the POSIX-style functions is called pcreposix.h. The official POSIX name is regex.h, but I did not want to risk possible problems with existing files of that name by distributing it that way. To use PCRE with an existing program that uses the POSIX API, pcreposix.h will have to be renamed or pointed at by a link. If you are using the POSIX interface to PCRE and there is already a POSIX regex library installed on your system, as well as worrying about the regex.h header file (as mentioned above), you must also take care when linking programs to ensure that they link with PCRE's libpcreposix library. Otherwise they may pick up the POSIX functions of the same name from the other library. One way of avoiding this confusion is to compile PCRE with the addition of -Dregcomp=PCREregcomp (and similarly for the other POSIX functions) to the compiler flags (CFLAGS if you are using "configure" -- see below). This has the effect of renaming the functions so that the names no longer clash. Of course, you have to do the same thing for your applications, or write them using the new names. Documentation for PCRE ---------------------- If you install PCRE in the normal way on a Unix-like system, you will end up with a set of man pages whose names all start with "pcre". The one that is just called "pcre" lists all the others. In addition to these man pages, the PCRE documentation is supplied in two other forms: 1. There are files called doc/pcre.txt, doc/pcregrep.txt, and doc/pcretest.txt in the source distribution. The first of these is a concatenation of the text forms of all the section 3 man pages except those that summarize individual functions. The other two are the text forms of the section 1 man pages for the pcregrep and pcretest commands. These text forms are provided for ease of scanning with text editors or similar tools. They are installed in <prefix>/share/doc/pcre, where <prefix> is the installation prefix (defaulting to /usr/local). 2. A set of files containing all the documentation in HTML form, hyperlinked in various ways, and rooted in a file called index.html, is distributed in doc/html and installed in <prefix>/share/doc/pcre/html. Users of PCRE have contributed files containing the documentation for various releases in CHM format. These can be found in the Contrib directory of the FTP site (see next section). Contributions by users of PCRE ------------------------------ You can find contributions from PCRE users in the directory ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/programming/pcre/Contrib There is a README file giving brief descriptions of what they are. Some are complete in themselves; others are pointers to URLs containing relevant files. Some of this material is likely to be well out-of-date. Several of the earlier contributions provided support for compiling PCRE on various flavours of Windows (I myself do not use Windows). Nowadays there is more Windows support in the standard distribution, so these contibutions have been archived. A PCRE user maintains downloadable Windows binaries of the pcregrep and pcretest programs here: http://www.rexegg.com/pcregrep-pcretest.html Building PCRE on non-Unix-like systems -------------------------------------- For a non-Unix-like system, please read the comments in the file NON-AUTOTOOLS-BUILD, though if your system supports the use of "configure" and "make" you may be able to build PCRE using autotools in the same way as for many Unix-like systems. PCRE can also be configured using the GUI facility provided by CMake's cmake-gui command. This creates Makefiles, solution files, etc. The file NON-AUTOTOOLS-BUILD has information about CMake. PCRE has been compiled on many different operating systems. It should be straightforward to build PCRE on any system that has a Standard C compiler and library, because it uses only Standard C functions. Building PCRE without using autotools ------------------------------------- The use of autotools (in particular, libtool) is problematic in some environments, even some that are Unix or Unix-like. See the NON-AUTOTOOLS-BUILD file for ways of building PCRE without using autotools. Building PCRE using autotools ----------------------------- If you are using HP's ANSI C++ compiler (aCC), please see the special note in the section entitled "Using HP's ANSI C++ compiler (aCC)" below. The following instructions assume the use of the widely used "configure; make; make install" (autotools) process. To build PCRE on system that supports autotools, first run the "configure" command from the PCRE distribution directory, with your current directory set to the directory where you want the files to be created. This command is a standard GNU "autoconf" configuration script, for which generic instructions are supplied in the file INSTALL. Most commonly, people build PCRE within its own distribution directory, and in this case, on many systems, just running "./configure" is sufficient. However, the usual methods of changing standard defaults are available. For example: CFLAGS='-O2 -Wall' ./configure --prefix=/opt/local This command specifies that the C compiler should be run with the flags '-O2 -Wall' instead of the default, and that "make install" should install PCRE under /opt/local instead of the default /usr/local. If you want to build in a different directory, just run "configure" with that directory as current. For example, suppose you have unpacked the PCRE source into /source/pcre/pcre-xxx, but you want to build it in /build/pcre/pcre-xxx: cd /build/pcre/pcre-xxx /source/pcre/pcre-xxx/configure PCRE is written in C and is normally compiled as a C library. However, it is possible to build it as a C++ library, tho
