Yes of course - the answer is: didn't even know that a default do exist. Sorry!
Grabbed the regexp.c compiled it - and yes - it works - plain and simple! Thanks a lot! For the archive if someone else try to compile it: gcc -s -O4 -I c:\sqlite\src\ -shared -o c:\sqlite\bin\regexp.dll c:\sqlite\ext\misc\regexp.c -----Urspr?ngliche Nachricht----- Von: sqlite-users-bounces at mailinglists.sqlite.org [mailto:sqlite-users-bounces at mailinglists.sqlite.org] Im Auftrag von Richard Hipp Gesendet: Dienstag, 19.

The RE syntax recognized by regexp.c is summarized in the header comment which can be perused here: https://www.sqlite.org/src/artifact/af92cdaa5058fcec The RE syntax recognized by regexp.c is a subset of PCRE. (The languages recognized by PCRE actually go beyond true Regular Expressions - but that is a topic for purists and theoreticians.) On the other hand, the regexp.c matcher is guaranteed to run in constant time (relative to the size of the string being scanned) whereas PCREs can run in exponential time for certain pathological cases. -- D.
