NAME
PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)

SYNOPSIS

#include <pcre2.h>

pcre2_code *pcre2_code_copy_with_tables(const pcre2_code *code);

DESCRIPTION

This function makes a copy of the memory used for a compiled pattern, excluding any memory used by the JIT com‐
piler. Without a subsequent call to pcre2_jit_compile(), the copy can be used only for non-JIT matching. Unlike
pcre2_code_copy(), a separate copy of the character tables is also made, with the new code pointing to it. This
memory will be automatically freed when pcre2_code_free() is called. The yield of the function is NULL if code is
NULL or if sufficient memory cannot be obtained.

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.
