I am weighing my next step after realizing that the special characters for pattern cannot really change in runtime while being the most abused by IBM.
IBM supplys a set of function that allow me to convert the input (string and pattern) from whatever EBCDIC codepage to the desired one. But in order not to run it umpteen times I need to put it in front of the PCRE so all the functions will see the converted strings. I cannot put the onus on the users as most of them use COBOL and are not sophisticated enougj
Any advice will be wellcome
Thank youZA
