39 /* The implementation provided here emulates the needed functionality
40 by mapping to the POSIX regular expression matcher. The interface
41 for the here included function is weird (this really is a harmless
42 word).
44 The user has to provide six macros before this header file can be
45 included:
47 INIT Declarations vor variables which can be used by the
48 other macros.
50 GETC() Return the value of the next character in the regular
51 expression pattern. Successive calls should return
52 successive characters.
54 PEEKC() Return the value of the next character in the regular
55 expression pattern. Immediately successive calls to
56 PEEKC() should return the same character which should
57 also be the next character returned by GETC().
59 UNGETC(c) Cause `c' to be returned by the next call to GETC() and
60 PEEKC().
62 RETURN(ptr) Used for normal exit of the `compile' function. `ptr'
63 is a pointer to the character after the last character of
64 the compiled regular expression.
66 ERROR(val) Used for abnormal return from `compile'. `val' is the
67 error number. The error codes are:
68 11 Range endpoint too large.
69 16 Bad number.
70 25 \digit out of range.
71 36 Illegal or missing delimiter.
72 41 No remembered search string.
73 42 \( \) imbalance.
74 43 Too many \(.
75 44 More tan two numbers given in \{ \}.
76 45 } expected after \.
77 46 First number exceeds second in \{ \}.
78 49 [ ] imbalance.
79 50 Regular expression overflow.
