Subject: [pcre-dev] Is there a newsgroup for pcre?
Hi,
I'm just starting out with PCRE and running into a problem with it. I was
wondering if there was a newsgroup where I can post my question?
Basically, my issue is that the (?:) syntax for non-capturing groups does
not seem to work, and was wondering if anyone else is using it successfully.
#include <iostream>
#include "pcreposix.h"
using namespace std;
int main()
{
char *message = "This is a bug free message";
regex_t regEx;
int ret = regcomp( ®Ex, "(?:[aA]?[0-9]+)", REG_ICASE | REG_EXTENDED );
char error[2048];
regerror( ret, ®Ex, error, 2048 );
cout << error <<endl;
return 0;
}
The above mini snippet returns error code 13: repetition-operator operand
invalid
I'm not sure at all why this is happening. I am using pcre-7.6.
If you can point me in the right direction where to post my question, I'd
appreciate it.
Thanks,
Eric
