Don't worry... I had enough sense not to touch the interface. I rewrote the plugin mainly because the code was a mess. > OTOH, if you wanted to work on the plugin, possibly people might be > interested in new services to access more of the PCRE type interfaces > and swtiches for advanced usage. I'm not exactly eager to work on it but reasonable requests are of course welcome. Some stuff could indeed be changed easily (such as submitting different flags to the library). > BTW, do you know any reason not to distribute the latest Pcre.dll > with the plugin? Well, PCRE has gone through major version changes so, without spending more time than I'd like to with the documentation, I wouldn't know if the latest version is 100% compatible. If someone tested (somewhat extensively) the plugin with the latest version of PCRE and found no issues, well then, you could obviously ship the plugin with the latest and greatest PCRE. Be aware that the latest version of the library is quite a bit larger though. Renaming the pcre3.dll from PCRE 6.4-1 to pcreposix.dll should be sufficient to make it work with the plugin... at least it works with the unreleased version. The thing is, this is a hack (using the wrong version of the library) and I didn't run proper tests. I guess I should at least recompile the plugin with the latest PCRE headers and the latest version of gcc to go with that. The thing is, it compiles only with links to the regular version of the library and doesn't care to link to the POSIX version of the library I was originally using. Then again, asking the compiler to link to both does affect the output. Go figure. I think should figure out what's going on before releasing anything... unless of course someone here has a clue. Please? One last caveat: the license and copyright holders changed so whoever wants to distribute newer versions of the PCRE library must also adjust Luciano's documentation accordingly. Distributing the library without the stale documentation should be OK as the BSD licence, copyright notices, and such are embedded in the new .dll file (neat trick!). ------------------------ Yahoo!
