DESCRIPTION
|
|
</b><br>
|
|
<P>
|
|
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:
|
|
<pre>
|
|
<i>pattern</i> The foreign pattern
|
|
<i>length</i> The length of the input pattern or PCRE2_ZERO_TERMINATED
|
|
<i>options</i> Option bits
|
|
<i>buffer</i> Pointer to pointer to output buffer, or NULL
|
|
<i>blength</i> Pointer to output length field
|
|
<i>cvcontext</i> Pointer to a convert context or NULL
|
|
</pre>
|
|
The length of the converted pattern (excluding the terminating zero) is
|
|
returned via <i>blength</i>. If <i>buffer</i> is NULL, the function just returns
|
|
the output length. If <i>buffer</i> points to a NULL pointer, heap memory is
|
|
obtained for the converted pattern, using the allocator in the context if
|
|
present (or else <b>malloc()</b>), and the field pointed to by <i>buffer</i> is
|
|
updated. If <i>buffer</i> points to a non-NULL field, that must point to a
|
|
buffer whose size is in the variable pointed to by <i>blength</i>. This value is
|
|
updated.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>
|
|
The option bits are:
|
|
<pre>
|
|
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
|
|
</pre>
|
|
The return value from <b>pcre2_pattern_convert()</b> is zero on success or a
|
|
non-zero PCRE2 error code.
|
