The configuring system has been upgraded to use later versions of autoconf -and libtool. By default it builds both a shared and a static library if the OS -supports it. You can use --disable-shared or --disable-static on the configure -command if you want only one of them. - -2. The pcretest utility is now installed along with pcregrep because it is -useful for users (to test regexs) and by doing this, it automatically gets -relinked by libtool. The documentation has been turned into a man page, so -there are now .1, .txt, and .html versions in /doc. - -3. Upgrades to pcregrep: - (i) Added long-form option names like gnu grep. - (ii) Added --help to list all options with an explanatory phrase. - (iii) Added -r, --recursive to recurse into sub-directories. - (iv) Added -f, --file to read patterns from a file. - -4. Added --enable-newline-is-cr and --enable-newline-is-lf to the configure -script, to force use of CR or LF instead of \n in the source. On non-Unix -systems, the value can be set in config.h. - -5. The limit of 200 on non-capturing parentheses is a _nesting_ limit, not an -absolute limit. Changed the text of the error message to make this clear, and -likewise updated the man page. - -6. The limit of 99 on the number of capturing subpatterns has been removed. -The new limit is 65535, which I hope will not be a "real" limit. - - -Release 3.3 01-Aug-00 ---------------------- - -There is some support for UTF-8 character strings. This is incomplete and -experimental. The documentation describes what is and what is not implemented. -Otherwise, this is just a bug-fixing release. - - -Release 3.0 01-Feb-00 ---------------------- - -1. A "configure" script is now used to configure PCRE for Unix systems. It -builds a Makefile, a config.h file, and the pcre-config script. - -2. PCRE is built as a shared library by default. - -3. There is support for POSIX classes such as [:alpha:]. - -5. There is an experimental recursion feature. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- - IMPORTANT FOR THOSE UPGRADING FROM VERSIONS BEFORE 2.00 - -Please note that there has been a change in the API such that a larger -ovector is required at matching time, to provide some additional workspace. -The new man page has details. This change was necessary in order to support -some of the new functionality in Perl 5.005. - - IMPORTANT FOR THOSE UPGRADING FROM VERSION 2.00 - -Another (I hope this is the last!) change has been made to the API for the -pcre_compile() function. An additional argument has been added to make it -possible to pass over a pointer to character tables built in the current -locale by pcre_maketables(). To use the default tables, this new arguement -should be passed as NULL. - - IMPORTANT FOR THOSE UPGRADING FROM VERSION 2.05 - -Yet another (and again I hope this really is the last) change has been made -to the API for the pcre_exec() function. An additional argument has been -added to make it possible to start the match other than at the start of the -subject string. This is important if there are lookbehinds. The new man -page has the details, but you just want to convert existing programs, all -you need to do is to stick in a new fifth argument to pcre_exec(), with a -value of zero. For example, change - - pcre_exec(pattern, extra, subject, length, options, ovec, ovecsize) -to - pcre_exec(pattern, extra, subject, length, 0, options, ovec, ovecsize) - -**** |
