.SH DESCRIPTION

|
.rs

|
||
|
|
This function is part of an experimental set of pattern conversion functions.
|
||
|
|
It converts a foreign pattern (for example, a glob) into a PCRE2 regular
|
||
|
|
expression pattern. Its arguments are:
|
||
|
|
.sp
|
||
|
|
\fIpattern\fP The foreign pattern
|
||
|
|
\fIlength\fP The length of the input pattern or PCRE2_ZERO_TERMINATED
|
||
|
|
\fIoptions\fP Option bits
|
||
|
|
\fIbuffer\fP Pointer to pointer to output buffer, or NULL
|
||
|
|
\fIblength\fP Pointer to output length field
|
||
|
|
\fIcvcontext\fP Pointer to a convert context or NULL
|
||
|
|
.sp
|
||
|
|
The length of the converted pattern (excluding the terminating zero) is
|
||
|
|
returned via \fIblength\fP. If \fIbuffer\fP is NULL, the function just returns
|
||
|
|
the output length. If \fIbuffer\fP points to a NULL pointer, heap memory is
|
||
|
|
obtained for the converted pattern, using the allocator in the context if
|
||
|
|
present (or else \fBmalloc()\fP), and the field pointed to by \fIbuffer\fP is
|
||
|
|
updated. If \fIbuffer\fP points to a non-NULL field, that must point to a
|
||
|
|
buffer whose size is in the variable pointed to by \fIblength\fP. This value is
|
||
|
|
updated.
|
||
|
|
.P
|
||
|
|
The option bits are:
|
||
|
|
.sp
|
||
|
|
PCRE2_CONVERT_UTF Input is UTF
|
||
|
|
PCRE2_CONVERT_NO_UTF_CHECK Do not check UTF validity
|
||
|
|
PCRE2_CONVERT_POSIX_BASIC Convert POSIX basic pattern
|
||
|
|
PCRE2_CONVERT_POSIX_EXTENDED Convert POSIX extended pattern
|
||
|
|
PCRE2_CONVERT_GLOB ) Convert
|
||
|
|
PCRE2_CONVERT_GLOB_NO_WILD_SEPARATOR ) various types
|
||
|
|
PCRE2_CONVERT_GLOB_NO_STARSTAR ) of glob
|
||
|
|
.sp
|
||
|
|
The return value from \fBpcre2_pattern_convert()\fP is zero on success or a
|
||
|
|
non-zero PCRE2 error code.
