I (Philip Hazel) -have no knowledge of Windows or VMS sytems and how their libraries work. The -items in the PCRE Makefile that relate to anything other than Unix-like systems -have been contributed by PCRE users. There are some other comments and files in -the Contrib directory on the ftp site that you may find useful. See - - ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/programming/pcre/Contrib - -If you want to compile PCRE for a non-Unix system (or perhaps, more strictly, -for a system that does not support "configure" and "make" files), note that -PCRE consists entirely of code written in Standard C, and so should compile -successfully on any system that has a Standard C compiler and library. - - -GENERIC INSTRUCTIONS - -The following are generic comments about building PCRE. The interspersed -indented commands are suggestions from Mark Tetrode as to which commands you -might use on a Windows system to build a static library. - -(1) Copy or rename the file config.in as config.h, and change the macros that -define HAVE_STRERROR and HAVE_MEMMOVE to define them as 1 rather than 0. -Unfortunately, because of the way Unix autoconf works, the default setting has -to be 0. You may also want to make changes to other macros in config.h. In -particular, if you want to force a specific value for newline, you can define -the NEWLINE macro. The default is to use '\n', thereby using whatever value -your compiler gives to '\n'. - - rem Mark Tetrode's commands - copy config.in config.h - rem Use write, because notepad cannot handle UNIX files. Change values. - write config.h - -(2) Copy or rename the file pcre.in as pcre.h, and change the macro definitions -for PCRE_MAJOR, PCRE_MINOR, and PCRE_DATE near its start to the values set in -configure.in. - - rem Mark Tetrode's commands - copy pcre.in pcre.h - rem Read values from configure.in - write configure.in - rem Change values - write pcre.h - -(3) Compile dftables.c as a stand-alone program, and then run it with -the single argument "chartables.c". This generates a set of standard -character tables and writes them to that file. - - rem Mark Tetrode's commands - rem Compile & run - cl -DSUPPORT_UTF8 dftables.c - dftables.exe > chartables.c - -(4) Compile maketables.c, get.c, study.c and pcre.c and link them all -together into an object library in whichever form your system keeps such -libraries. This is the pcre library (chartables.c is included by means of an -#include directive). If your system has static and shared libraries, you may -have to do this once for each type. - - rem Mark Tetrode's commands, for a static library - rem Compile & lib - cl -DSUPPORT_UTF8 -DPOSIX_MALLOC_THRESHOLD=10 /c maketables.c get.c study.c pcre.c - lib /OUT:pcre.lib maketables.obj get.obj study.obj pcre.obj - -(5) Similarly, compile pcreposix.c and link it (on its own) as the pcreposix -library. - - rem Mark Tetrode's commands, for a static library - rem Compile & lib - cl -DSUPPORT_UTF8 -DPOSIX_MALLOC_THRESHOLD=10 /c pcreposix.c - lib /OUT:pcreposix.lib pcreposix.obj - -(6) Compile the test program pcretest.c. This needs the functions in the -pcre and pcreposix libraries when linking. - - rem Mark Tetrode's commands - rem compile & link - cl pcretest.c pcre.lib pcreposix.lib - -(7) Run pcretest on the testinput files in the testdata directory, and check -that the output matches the corresponding testoutput files. You must use the --i option when checking testinput2. Note that the supplied files are in Unix -format, with just LF characters as line terminators.

These environments are Mingw32 -(http://www.xraylith.wisc.edu/~khan/software/gnu-win32/) and CygWin -(http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin/). Paul comments: - - For CygWin, set CFLAGS=-mno-cygwin, and do 'make dll'. You'll get - pcre.dll (containing pcreposix also), libpcre.dll.a, and dynamically - linked pgrep and pcretest. If you have /bin/sh, run RunTest (three - main test go ok, locale not supported). - -Changes to do MinGW with autoconf 2.50 were supplied by Fred Cox -<sailorFred@yahoo.com>, who comments as follows: - - If you are using the PCRE DLL, the normal Unix style configure && make && - make check && make install should just work[*]. If you want to statically - link against the .a file, you must define PCRE_STATIC before including - pcre.h, otherwise the pcre_malloc and pcre_free exported functions will be - declared __declspec(dllimport), with hilarious results. See the configure.in - and pcretest.c for how it is done for the static test. - - Also, there will only be a libpcre.la, not a libpcreposix.la, as you - would expect from the Unix version. The single DLL includes the pcreposix - interface. - -[*] But note that the supplied test files are in Unix format, with just LF -characters as line terminators. You will have to edit them to change to CR LF -terminators. - -A script for building PCRE using Borland's C++ compiler for use with VPASCAL -was contributed by Alexander Tokarev. It is called makevp.bat. - -These are some further comments about Win32 builds from Mark Evans. They -were contributed before Fred Cox's changes were made, so it is possible that -they may no longer be relevant. - -"The documentation for Win32 builds is a bit shy. Under MSVC6 I -followed their instructions to the letter, but there were still -some things missing. - -(1) Must #define STATIC for entire project if linking statically. - (I see no reason to use DLLs for code this compact.) This of - course is a project setting in MSVC under Preprocessor. - -(2) Missing some #ifdefs relating to the function pointers - pcre_malloc and pcre_free. See my solution below. (The stubs - may not be mandatory but they made me feel better.)" - -========================= -#ifdef _WIN32 -#include <malloc.h> - -void* malloc_stub(size_t N) -{ return malloc(N); } -void free_stub(void* p) -{ free(p); } -void *(*pcre_malloc)(size_t) = &malloc_stub; -void (*pcre_free)(void *) = &free_stub; - -#else - -void *(*pcre_malloc)(size_t) = malloc; -void (*pcre_free)(void *) = free; - -#endif -========================= - - -BUILDING PCRE ON OPENVMS - -Dan Mooney sent the following comments about building PCRE on OpenVMS: - -"It was quite easy to compile and link the library. I don't have a formal -make file but the attached file [reproduced below] contains the OpenVMS DCL -commands I used to build the library. I had to add #define -POSIX_MALLOC_THRESHOLD 10 to pcre.h since it was not defined anywhere. - -The library was built on: -O/S: HP OpenVMS v7.3-1 -Compiler: Compaq C v6.5-001-48BCD -Linker: vA13-01 - -The test results did not match 100% due to the issues you mention in your -documentation regarding isprint(), iscntrl(), isgraph() and ispunct(). I -modified some of the character tables temporarily and was able to get the -results to match. Tests using the fr locale did not match since I don't have -that locale loaded. The study size was always reported to be 3 less than the -value in the standard test output files." - -========================= -$! This DCL procedure builds PCRE on OpenVMS -$! -$!
