<title>OSSP pcre</title>
<h1>Perl Compatible Regular Expressions</h1>
<h2>Abstract</h2>
OSSP pcre is a derivative of Philip Hazel's <a
href="http://www.pcre.org/">PCRE</a> library for matching text via
Perl-compatible regular expressions. OSSP pcre additionally contains the
function pcre_match(3) which provides a very convenience way to apply a
regular expression, including caching support.
<p>
Notice: OSSP pcre is fully compatible with the original PCRE library. It is
just a super-set of it and made into an OSSP library for easier integration
within the OSSP project. It is not intended to replace or to compete with the
original PCRE library in any way.
