Many of you use regular expressions. Many of the expression are more than regular. They can be called Perl-Compatible Regular Expressions (PCRE). Those who need to support PCRE in their code use usually the well-known PCRE library <http://www.pcre.org/>. PCRE library maintainers decided to design shiny new API and implement it in a new PCRE2 library. (Don't panic, current PCRE library will be _maintained_ for reasonable long time). This new API proposal is available at <ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/programming/pcre/Testing/PCRE2_proposal.pdf>. Some of the new features are call-back based interface with thread-safe memory model, proper (Unicode) code unit support (different character widths), or start-pointer-and-length string specification. Feel free to discuss these changes at PCRE development mailing list <pcre-dev@xxxxxxxx>. -- Petr -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
