http://bugs.exim.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1210 Summary: Add support for linking pcretest to libedit Product: PCRE Version: 8.30 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Keywords: work:small Severity: wishlist Priority: medium Component: Code AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [email protected] CC: [email protected] Created an attachment (id=543) --> (http://bugs.exim.org/attachment.cgi?id=543) Example patch for libedit support The libedit library is a libreadline-compatible library licensed under the 4-clause BSD license. It originates from the NetBSD project is available on major Linux distributions as well as other operating systems (e.g the BSD family). With using libedit instead of libreadline, the PCRE package does not get GPLv3 poisoning. The library's API is fully compatible to libreadline, so only changes in the configuration system are needed. The standard libedit distribution does not include the "history.h" header, so in case of using libedit this header should not be included in pcretest.c An example patch showing one of the possible solutions is attached. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.exim.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/pcre-dev
