Solution: port to PCRE2 Link: https://bugs.debian.org/1000118

Have you tested that this doesn't introduce regressions for the variety of usage of this tool, like those in other repositories in this org? |
|
No. Can you point out which ones make use of it? I do not have any gsl domain knowledge. |
|
But note that this is incomplete because I do not have the means to adjust and test the Windows build files. |
|
It is used by https://github.com/zeromq/zproject which in turn is used by a large number of other repos, all those that include a project.xml in the root directory. And yes this needs to be verified on Windows and OSX too at a minimum. |
Outside of builds/msvc, replace the pcre references.
Solution: Prevent syntax error by quoting.
|
Are there any references to differences between the two versions? I couldn't find any when I quickly scanned the PCRE2 github repo. |
|
There is no porting guide, but people linked some documentation on the bug which asks for one. |
The original PCRE library is deprecated. This is a port to the successor PCRE2.
