You can "statically" pre-compile to a text file: use the regcomp command - not a C call. It creates the compiled buffer you need in a file. I typically use maybe a dozen of ptr-compiles in a simple app for validating input. You put them in an include file.

And Rudic is correct - you can compile once and then run the compiled buffer multiple times internally -- as well as pre-compile.

netscript-compile

NET-COMPILE(8)						      System Manager's Manual						    NET-COMPILE(8)

NAME

       netscript-compile - netscript ipfilter-defs compile back end.

SYNOPSIS

       netcript-compile [ -fhq ] [ -b max-backup-level ]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the netscript-compile command from the netscript router/firewall network configuration package.

       This  command is the back end to the netscript compile command documented in netscript(8) manpage.  See ipfilter-defs(5) for the details on
       the definitions files in /etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs.

       By default it checks to see if the relevant files in the /etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs directory have been updated by comparing their  modi-
       fication  times to that of /etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs.conf, and if updating is needed, it recompiles and re-creates the file.	Up to max-
       backup-levels of history are kept of previously compiled /etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs.conf files, with a  numeric  extention  in  order	of
       increasing age.

OPTIONS

       -b max-backup-level
	      Sets  the  maximum  level  of  backups  kept  of	previously  compiled files.  This defaults to 2 (see /etc/netscript/netscript-com-
	      pile.conf), and it is also used by the netscript(8) compile command.

       -f     Force compile even though compile file is up to date with definitions.  The testing depends on the modification times of the defini-
	      tion file inodes in the file system.

       -h
	      Show a summary of options.

       -q     Quiet compile.  This option suppresses informational progress messages.

FILES

       /etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs.conf,
       /etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs-compiled.conf,
       /etc/netscript/ipfilter-defs directory.

SEE ALSO

       ipfilter-defs(5), netscript(8).
