The current PCRE source file download includes the C++ wrapper, which is bundled with the C language code. Heads up 1: the C++ wrapper is no longer maintained, as the original maintainer moved jobs and nobody has taken it up. None of the PCRE maintainers are C++ programmers. Heads up 2: shortly (around Christmas) there will be a completely new API for PCRE released (called PCRE2). This will not have a C++ wrapper. I now feel that any C++ wrapper(s) should be maintained as separate project(s). Aside: Other people have produced different C++ wrappers. See, for example, https://github.com/YasserAsmi/regexp.
