37 /* The implementation provided here emulates the needed functionality
38 by mapping to the POSIX regular expression matcher. The interface
39 for the here included function is weird (this really is a harmless
40 word).
42 The user has to provide six macros before this header file can be
43 included:
45 INIT Declarations vor variables which can be used by the
46 other macros.
48 GETC() Return the value of the next character in the regular
49 expression pattern. Successive calls should return
50 successive characters.
52 PEEKC() Return the value of the next character in the regular
53 expression pattern. Immediately successive calls to
54 PEEKC() should return the same character which should
55 also be the next character returned by GETC().
57 UNGETC(c) Cause `c' to be returned by the next call to GETC() and
58 PEEKC().
60 RETURN(ptr) Used for normal exit of the `compile' function. `ptr'
61 is a pointer to the character after the last character of
62 the compiled regular expression.
64 ERROR(val) Used for abnormal return from `compile'. `val' is the
65 error number. The error codes are:
66 11 Range endpoint too large.
67 16 Bad number.
68 25 \digit out of range.
69 36 Illegal or missing delimiter.
70 41 No remembered search string.
71 42 \( \) imbalance.
72 43 Too many \(.
73 44 More tan two numbers given in \{ \}.
74 45 } expected after \.
75 46 First number exceeds second in \{ \}.
76 49 [ ] imbalance.
77 50 Regular expression overflow.
