Update to 7.1:
Release 7.1 24-Apr-07
---------------------
There is only one new feature in this release: a linebreak setting of
PCRE_NEWLINE_ANYCRLF. It is a cut-down version of PCRE_NEWLINE_ANY, which
recognizes only CRLF, CR, and LF as linebreaks.
A few bugs are fixed (see ChangeLog for details), but the major change is a
complete re-implementation of the build system. This now has full Autotools
support and so is now "standard" in some sense. It should help with \
compiling
PCRE in a wide variety of environments.
NOTE: when building shared libraries for Windows, three dlls are now built,
called libpcre, libpcreposix, and libpcrecpp. Previously, everything was
included in a single dll.
Another important change is that the dftables auxiliary program is no longer
compiled and run at "make" time by default. Instead, a default set of \
character
tables (assuming ASCII coding) is used. If you want to use dftables to generate
the character tables as previously, add --enable-rebuild-chartables to the
"configure" command. You must do this if you are compiling PCRE to run on a
system that uses EBCDIC code.
There is a discussion about character tables in the README file. The default is
not to use dftables so that that there is no problem when cross-compiling.
