PCRE_PATTE..._BYTE_ORDER(3) Library Functions Manual PCRE_PATTE..._BYTE_ORDER(3)

NAME
     PCRE - Perl-compatible regular expressions

SYNOPSIS
     #include <pcre.h>

     int pcre_pattern_to_host_byte_order(pcre *code,
	  pcre_extra *extra, const unsigned char *tables);

     int pcre16_pattern_to_host_byte_order(pcre16 *code,
	  pcre16_extra *extra, const unsigned char *tables);

     int pcre32_pattern_to_host_byte_order(pcre32 *code,
	  pcre32_extra *extra, const unsigned char *tables);

DESCRIPTION
     This  function ensures that the bytes in 2-byte and 4-byte values in a com-
     piled pattern are in the correct order for the current host. It  is  useful
     when a pattern that has been compiled on one host is transferred to another
     that might have different endianness. The arguments are:

       code	    A compiled regular expression
       extra	    Points to an associated pcre[16|32]_extra structure,
		      or is NULL
       tables	    Pointer to character tables, or NULL to
		      set the built-in default

     The result is 0 for success, a negative PCRE_ERROR_xxx value otherwise.

     There  is a complete description of the PCRE native API in the pcreapi page
     and a description of the POSIX API in the pcreposix page.
