PCRE is a seperate library, not part of webkit. Webkit has a forked copy of PCRE that doesn't require the UTF16 -> UTF8 conversion (at least, according to http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/webkit-dev/2005-June/000082.html), but that's not a standalone library, meaning someone would need to rip it out, and make sure they keep it in sync with the copy in webkit, etc. Or use the stock PCRE, and suffer the performance hit. > I would not do that, I would choose only PCRE and have the same behavior on > all platforms I do sort of wonder how this is going to work on e.g. Windows - Thiago? :) > Additionally V8 is a so huge dependency that it should be avoided for > standard bricks like regexp. I think this could do with some explaining as to what the implications would actually be, before I'd run off saying it's a bad idea. thanks, Robin _______________________________________________ Qt5-feedback mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt.nokia.com/mailman/listinfo/qt5-feedback
