PCRE2_CODE_FREE(3)      Library Functions Manual      PCRE2_CODE_FREE(3)

NAME top

       PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)

SYNOPSIS top


       #include <pcre2.h>

       void pcre2_code_free(pcre2_code *code);

DESCRIPTION top


       If code is NULL, this function does nothing. Otherwise, code must
       point to a compiled pattern. This function frees its memory,
       including any memory used by the JIT compiler. If the compiled
       pattern was created by a call to pcre2_code_copy_with_tables(),
       the memory for the character tables is also freed.

       There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API in the
       pcre2api page and a description of the POSIX API in the
       pcre2posix page.
