PCRE2_MAKETABLES(3)	   Library Functions Manual	   PCRE2_MAKETABLES(3)

NAME
       PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)

SYNOPSIS

       #include	<pcre2.h>

       const uint8_t *pcre2_maketables(pcre2_general_context *gcontext);

DESCRIPTION

       This  function  builds  a  set  of  character tables for	character code
       points that are less than 256. These can	be passed  to  pcre2_compile()
       in a compile context in order to	override the internal, built-in	tables
       (which  were  either defaulted or made by pcre2_maketables() when PCRE2
       was compiled). See the  pcre2_set_character_tables()  page.  You	 might
       want to do this if you are using	a non-standard locale.

       If the argument is NULL,	malloc() is used to get	memory for the tables.
       Otherwise it must point to a general context, which can supply pointers
       to  a  custom  memory manager. The function yields a pointer to the ta-
       bles.

       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.
