NAME top

       PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)

SYNOPSIS top


       #include <pcre2.h>

       void pcre2_serialize_free(uint8_t *bytes);

DESCRIPTION top


       This function frees the memory that was obtained by
       pcre2_serialize_encode() to hold a serialized byte stream. The
       argument must point to such a byte stream or be NULL, in which
       case the function returns without doing anything.

       There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API in the
       pcre2api page and a description of the serialization functions in
       the pcre2serialize page.
