I'm sorry. I should have made it clear that I am talking about the code in the
forthcoming 10.33. Its pcre2posix.h contains, for example,
PCRE2POSIX_EXP_DECL int pcre2_regcomp(regex_t *, const char *, int);
PCRE2POSIX_EXP_DECL int regcomp(regex_t *, const char *, int);
Thus, regcomp() is a function, not a macro, and the .c file contains this:
PCRE2POSIX_EXP_DEFN int PCRE2_CALL_CONVENTION
regcomp(regex_t *preg, const char *pattern, int cflags)
{
return pcre2_regcomp(preg, pattern, cflags);
}
Apologies for the confusion. I've noticed that earlier in this thread there's a
reference to loading the library from Python, and this is surely a case where a
function is required.
