PCRE_MAKETABLES(3)					     Library Functions Manual						PCRE_MAKETABLES(3)

NAME
       PCRE - Perl-compatible regular expressions

SYNOPSIS

       #include <pcre.h>

       const unsigned char *pcre_maketables(void);

DESCRIPTION

       This function builds a set of character tables for character values less than 256. These can be passed to pcre_compile() to override PCRE's
       internal, built-in tables (which were made by pcre_maketables() when PCRE was compiled). You might want to do this if you are using a  non-
       standard locale.  The function yields a pointer to the tables.

       There is a complete description of the PCRE native API in the pcreapi page and a description of the POSIX API in the pcreposix page.
