PCRE2_GENERAL_CONTEXT_CREATE(3) Introduction to Library Functions

NAME

PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)

SYNOPSIS

#include <pcre2.h>

pcre2_general_context *pcre2_general_context_create(
void *(*private_malloc)(size_t, void *),
void (*private_free)(void *, void *), void *memory_data);

DESCRIPTION

This function creates and initializes a general context. The
arguments define custom memory management functions and a data value
that is passed to them when they are called. The private_malloc()
function is used to get memory for the context. If either of the
first two arguments is NULL, the system memory management function is
used. The result is NULL if no memory could be obtained.

There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API in the
pcre2api page and a description of the POSIX API in the pcre2posix
page.
