|

<P>
|

Starting with release 8.32, it is possible to compile a PCRE library that
|
||
|
|
supports 32-bit character strings, including UTF-32 strings, as well as or
|
||
|
|
instead of the original 8-bit library. This work was done by Christian Persch,
|
||
|
|
based on the work done by Zoltan Herczeg for the 16-bit library. All three
|
||
|
|
libraries contain identical sets of functions, used in exactly the same way.
|
||
|
|
Only the names of the functions and the data types of their arguments and
|
||
|
|
results are different. To avoid over-complication and reduce the documentation
|
||
|
|
maintenance load, most of the PCRE documentation describes the 8-bit library,
|
||
|
|
with only occasional references to the 16-bit and 32-bit libraries. This page
|
||
|
|
describes what is different when you use the 32-bit library.
|
||
|
|
</P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
WARNING: A single application can be linked with all or any of the three
|
||
|
|
libraries, but you must take care when processing any particular pattern
|
||
|
|
to use functions from just one library. For example, if you want to study
|
||
|
|
a pattern that was compiled with <b>pcre32_compile()</b>, you must do so
|
||
|
|
with <b>pcre32_study()</b>, not <b>pcre_study()</b>, and you must free the
|
||
|
|
study data with <b>pcre32_free_study()</b>.

|
|
<br><a name="SEC7" href="#TOC1">THE HEADER FILE</a><br>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
There is only one header file, <b>pcre.h</b>. It contains prototypes for all the
|
||
|
|
functions in all libraries, as well as definitions of flags, structures, error
|
||
|
|
codes, etc.

<br><a name="SEC8" href="#TOC1">THE LIBRARY NAME</a><br>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
In Unix-like systems, the 32-bit library is called <b>libpcre32</b>, and can
|
||
|
|
normally be accesss by adding <b>-lpcre32</b> to the command for linking an
|
||
|
|
application that uses PCRE.
|
||
|
|
</P>
|
||
|
|
<br><a name="SEC9" href="#TOC1">STRING TYPES</a><br>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
In the 8-bit library, strings are passed to PCRE library functions as vectors
|
||
|
|
of bytes with the C type "char *". In the 32-bit library, strings are passed as
|
||
|
|
vectors of unsigned 32-bit quantities. The macro PCRE_UCHAR32 specifies an
|
||
|
|
appropriate data type, and PCRE_SPTR32 is defined as "const PCRE_UCHAR32 *". In
|
||
|
|
very many environments, "unsigned int" is a 32-bit data type. When PCRE is
|
||
|
|
built, it defines PCRE_UCHAR32 as "unsigned int", but checks that it really is
|
||
|
|
a 32-bit data type. If it is not, the build fails with an error message telling
|
||
|
|
the maintainer to modify the definition appropriately.
|
||
|
|
</P>
|
||
|
|
<br><a name="SEC10" href="#TOC1">STRUCTURE TYPES</a><br>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
The types of the opaque structures that are used for compiled 32-bit patterns
|
||
|
|
and JIT stacks are <b>pcre32</b> and <b>pcre32_jit_stack</b> respectively. The
|
||
|
|
type of the user-accessible structure that is returned by <b>pcre32_study()</b>
|
||
|
|
is <b>pcre32_extra</b>, and the type of the structure that is used for passing
|
||
|
|
data to a callout function is <b>pcre32_callout_block</b>. These structures
|
||
|
|
contain the same fields, with the same names, as their 8-bit counterparts. The
|
||
|
|
only difference is that pointers to character strings are 32-bit instead of
|
||
|
|
8-bit types.
|
||
|
|
</P>
|
||
|
|
<br><a name="SEC11" href="#TOC1">32-BIT FUNCTIONS</a><br>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
For every function in the 8-bit library there is a corresponding function in
|
||
|
|
the 32-bit library with a name that starts with <b>pcre32_</b> instead of
|
||
|
|
<b>pcre_</b>. The prototypes are listed above. In addition, there is one extra
|
||
|
|
function, <b>pcre32_utf32_to_host_byte_order()</b>. This is a utility function
|
||
|
|
that converts a UTF-32 character string to host byte order if necessary. The
|
||
|
|
other 32-bit functions expect the strings they are passed to be in host byte
|
||
|
|
order.
|
||
|
|
</P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
The <i>input</i> and <i>output</i> arguments of
|
||
|
|
<b>pcre32_utf32_to_host_byte_order()</b> may point to the same address, that is,
|
||
|
|
conversion in place is supported. The output buffer must be at least as long as
|
||
|
|
the input.
|
||
|
|
</P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
The <i>length</i> argument specifies the number of 32-bit data units in the
|
||
|
|
input string; a negative value specifies a zero-terminated string.
|
||
|
|
</P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
If <i>byte_order</i> is NULL, it is assumed that the string starts off in host
|
||
|
|
byte order. This may be changed by byte-order marks (BOMs) anywhere in the
|
||
|
|
string (commonly as the first character).
|
||
|
|
</P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
If <i>byte_order</i> is not NULL, a non-zero value of the integer to which it
|
||
|
|
points means that the input starts off in host byte order, otherwise the
|
||
|
|
opposite order is assumed. Again, BOMs in the string can change this. The final
|
||
|
|
byte order is passed back at the end of processing.
|
||
|
|
</P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
If <i>keep_boms</i> is not zero, byte-order mark characters (0xfeff) are copied
|
||
|
|
into the output string. Otherwise they are discarded.
|
||
|
|
</P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
The result of the function is the number of 32-bit units placed into the output
|
||
|
|
buffer, including the zero terminator if the string was zero-terminated.
|
||
|
|
</P>

<br><a name="SEC12" href="#TOC1">SUBJECT STRING OFFSETS</a><br>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
The lengths and starting offsets of subject strings must be specified in 32-bit
|
||
|
|
data units, and the offsets within subject strings that are returned by the
|
||
|
|
matching functions are in also 32-bit units rather than bytes.

<P>
|

|
|
The name-to-number translation table that is maintained for named subpatterns
|
||
|
|
uses 32-bit characters. The <b>pcre32_get_stringtable_entries()</b> function
|
||
|
|
returns the length of each entry in the table as the number of 32-bit data
|

|
|
units.

There are two new general option names, PCRE_UTF32 and PCRE_NO_UTF32_CHECK,
|
||
|
|
which correspond to PCRE_UTF8 and PCRE_NO_UTF8_CHECK in the 8-bit library. In
|
||
|
|
fact, these new options define the same bits in the options word. There is a
|
||
|
|
discussion about the
|
||
|
|
<a href="pcreunicode.html#utf32strings">validity of UTF-32 strings</a>
|
||

<P>
|

|
|
For the <b>pcre32_config()</b> function there is an option PCRE_CONFIG_UTF32
|
||
|
|
that returns 1 if UTF-32 support is configured, otherwise 0. If this option is
|
||
|
|
given to <b>pcre_config()</b> or <b>pcre16_config()</b>, or if the
|
||
|
|
PCRE_CONFIG_UTF8 or PCRE_CONFIG_UTF16 option is given to <b>pcre32_config()</b>,
|
||
|
|
the result is the PCRE_ERROR_BADOPTION error.

In 32-bit mode, when PCRE_UTF32 is not set, character values are treated in the
|
||
|
|
same way as in 8-bit, non UTF-8 mode, except, of course, that they can range
|
||
|
|
from 0 to 0x7fffffff instead of 0 to 0xff. Character types for characters less
|
||
|
|
than 0xff can therefore be influenced by the locale in the same way as before.
|
||
|
|
Characters greater than 0xff have only one case, and no "type" (such as letter
|
||
|
|
or digit).
|
||
|
|
</P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
In UTF-32 mode, the character code is Unicode, in the range 0 to 0x10ffff, with
|
||
|
|
the exception of values in the range 0xd800 to 0xdfff because those are
|
||
|
|
"surrogate" values that are ill-formed in UTF-32.
|
||
|
|
</P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
A UTF-32 string can indicate its endianness by special code knows as a
|
||
|
|
byte-order mark (BOM). The PCRE functions do not handle this, expecting strings
|
||
|
|
to be in host byte order. A utility function called
|
||
|
|
<b>pcre32_utf32_to_host_byte_order()</b> is provided to help with this (see
|
||
|
|
above).

The error PCRE_ERROR_BADUTF32 corresponds to its 8-bit counterpart.
|
||
|
|
The error PCRE_ERROR_BADMODE is given when a compiled
|
||
|
|
pattern is passed to a function that processes patterns in the other
|
||
|
|
mode, for example, if a pattern compiled with <b>pcre_compile()</b> is passed to
|
||
|
|
<b>pcre32_exec()</b>.
|
||
|
|
</P>
|
||
|

<P>
|

There are new error codes whose names begin with PCRE_UTF32_ERR for invalid
|
||
|
|
UTF-32 strings, corresponding to the PCRE_UTF8_ERR codes for UTF-8 strings that
|
||
|
|
are described in the section entitled
|
||
|
|
<a href="pcreapi.html#badutf8reasons">"Reason codes for invalid UTF-8 strings"</a>
|
||
|
|
in the main
|
||
|
|
<a href="pcreapi.html"><b>pcreapi</b></a>
|
||
|
|
page. The UTF-32 errors are:
|
||
|
|
<pre>
|
||
|
|
PCRE_UTF32_ERR1 Surrogate character (range from 0xd800 to 0xdfff)
|
||
|
|
PCRE_UTF32_ERR2 Non-character
|
||
|
|
PCRE_UTF32_ERR3 Character > 0x10ffff

If there is an error while compiling a pattern, the error text that is passed
|
||
|
|
back by <b>pcre32_compile()</b> or <b>pcre32_compile2()</b> is still an 8-bit
|
||
|
|
character string, zero-terminated.

The <i>subject</i> and <i>mark</i> fields in the callout block that is passed to

The <b>pcretest</b> program continues to operate with 8-bit input and output
|
||
|
|
files, but it can be used for testing the 32-bit library. If it is run with the
|
||
|
|
command line option <b>-32</b>, patterns and subject strings are converted from
|
||
|
|
8-bit to 32-bit before being passed to PCRE, and the 32-bit library functions
|
||
|
|
are used instead of the 8-bit ones. Returned 32-bit strings are converted to
|
||
|
|
8-bit for output. If both the 8-bit and the 16-bit libraries were not compiled,
|
||
|
|
<b>pcretest</b> defaults to 32-bit and the <b>-32</b> option is ignored.
|
||
|
|
</P>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
When PCRE is being built, the <b>RunTest</b> script that is called by "make
|
||
|
|
check" uses the <b>pcretest</b> <b>-C</b> option to discover which of the 8-bit,
|
||
|
|
16-bit and 32-bit libraries has been built, and runs the tests appropriately.
|
||
|
|
</P>
|

|
<br><a name="SEC20" href="#TOC1">NOT SUPPORTED IN 32-BIT MODE</a><br>
|
||
|
|
<P>
|
||
|
|
Not all the features of the 8-bit library are available with the 32-bit
|
||
|
|
library. The C++ and POSIX wrapper functions support only the 8-bit library,
|
||
|
|
and the <b>pcregrep</b> program is at present 8-bit only.
