Version 8.30 04-February-2012 |
|
----------------------------- |
|
|
|
1. Renamed "isnumber" as "is_a_number" because in some Mac environments this |
|
name is defined in ctype.h. |
|
|
|
2. Fixed a bug in fixed-length calculation for lookbehinds that would show up |
|
only in quite long subpatterns. |
|
|
|
3. Removed the function pcre_info(), which has been obsolete and deprecated |
|
since it was replaced by pcre_fullinfo() in February 2000. |
|
|
|
4. For a non-anchored pattern, if (*SKIP) was given with a name that did not |
|
match a (*MARK), and the match failed at the start of the subject, a |
|
reference to memory before the start of the subject could occur. This bug |
|
was introduced by fix 17 of release 8.21. |
|
|
|
5. A reference to an unset group with zero minimum repetition was giving |
|
totally wrong answers (in non-JavaScript-compatibility mode). For example, |
|
/(another)?(\1?)test/ matched against "hello world test". This bug was |
|
introduced in release 8.13. |
|
|
|
6. Add support for 16-bit character strings (a large amount of work involving |
|
many changes and refactorings). |
|
|
|
7. RunGrepTest failed on msys because \r\n was replaced by whitespace when the |
|
command "pattern=`printf 'xxx\r\njkl'`" was run. The pattern is now taken |
|
from a file. |
|
|
|
8. Ovector size of 2 is also supported by JIT based pcre_exec (the ovector size |
|
rounding is not applied in this particular case). |
|
|
|
9. The invalid Unicode surrogate codepoints U+D800 to U+DFFF are now rejected |
|
if they appear, or are escaped, in patterns. |
|
|
|
10. Get rid of a number of -Wunused-but-set-variable warnings. |
|
|
|
11. The pattern /(?=(*:x))(q|)/ matches an empty string, and returns the mark |
|
"x". The similar pattern /(?=(*:x))((*:y)q|)/ did not return a mark at all. |
|
Oddly, Perl behaves the same way. PCRE has been fixed so that this pattern |
|
also returns the mark "x". This bug applied to capturing parentheses, |
|
non-capturing parentheses, and atomic parentheses. It also applied to some |
|
assertions. |
|
|
|
12. Stephen Kelly's patch to CMakeLists.txt allows it to parse the version |
|
information out of configure.ac instead of relying on pcre.h.generic, which |
|
is not stored in the repository. |
|
|
|
13. Applied Dmitry V. Levin's patch for a more portable method for linking with |
|
-lreadline. |
|
|
|
14. ZH added PCRE_CONFIG_JITTARGET; added its output to pcretest -C. |
|
|
|
15. Applied Graycode's patch to put the top-level frame on the stack rather |
|
than the heap when not using the stack for recursion. This gives a |
|
performance improvement in many cases when recursion is not deep. |
|
|
|
16. Experimental code added to "pcretest -C" to output the stack frame size. |
