NAME top

       PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)

SYNOPSIS top


       #include <pcre2.h>

       pcre2_match_context *pcre2_match_context_create(
         pcre2_general_context *gcontext);

DESCRIPTION top


       This function creates and initializes a new match context. If its
       argument is NULL, malloc() is used to get the necessary memory;
       otherwise the memory allocation function within the general
       context is used. The result is NULL if the memory could not 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.
