REGEX library modernization. The A-Shell regular expression support now supports version 2 of the PCRE (Perl-Compatible Regular Expression) library on newer platforms. PCRE2 is a complete rewrite, faster and more memory-efficient, particularly with complex patterns. Although the new library API is incompatible with the old one, requiring a signicant amount of adaptation in A-Shell, the differences should not be apparent at the application level. For A-Shell/Windows, the old pcre3.dll is no longer needed; the equivalent new library module is pcre2-8.dll and is included in the A-Shell distribution. For A-Shell/Linux, the new library version is currently only being used on the -d13 and -el9 64 bit platforms; other distributions/platforms will be migrated over time. In general though, you can tell which from the ashell executable using the 'ldd ashell' command. (The old library is libpcre.so.x while the new one is libprec2-8.so.x.) If the package is missing, install the 'pcre2' or 'pcre2-devel' package for the appropriate architecture. |
