libpcre

PCRE (Perl-compatible regular expression library)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a port of PCRE 8.45 by Philip Hazel for AmigaOS 4, as found at the
Sourceforge repository (https://sourceforge.net/projects/pcre/files/pcre/)

More information about PCRE can be found at its official website
at https://www.pcre.org

In the archive both newlib and clib2 libraries are included. It has been
tested with various applications, but in case you find issues please 
contact me.

This release can replace the old 6.4 from Henning Nielsen Lund, but it
might not work well with your application, because of the many changes
happened the last 10+ years.

To install it into your AmigaOS 4 SDK installation, just extract all the 
files in the SDK: path.

Compile
--------------------------
The source and the changes I did can be found at my personale repository
https://git.walkero.gr/walkero/pcre

You can compile it using the Makefile.os4 file, and produce the libraries
yourself.

* with newlib run:
  ```bash
  make -f Makefile.os4 all
  ```
* with clib2 run:
  ```bash
  make -f Makefile.os4 all USE_CLIB2=yes
  ```
