<hr><a name="_details"></a><h2>Detailed Description</h2>
The Pcre class is a wrapper around the PCRE library.<p>
The library "pcre++" defines a class named "Pcre" which you can use to search in strings using reular expressions as well as getting matched sub strings. It does currently not support all features, which the underlying PCRE library provides, but the most important stuff is implemented.<p>
Please study this example code to learn how to use this class: <div class="fragment"><pre><span class="comment">/*</span>

Compile your programs which use the prce++ class using the following command line: <div class="fragment"><pre>
   g++ -c yourcode.o `pcre-config --cflags` `pcre++-config --cflags`
   g++ yourcode.o `pcre-config --libs` `pcre++-config --libs` -o yourprogram

If you want to learn more about regular expressions which can be used with pcre++, then please read the following documentation: <a href="perlre.html">perlre - Perl regular expressions</a><p>
The pcre library itself does also contain some usefull documentation, which maybe interesting for you: <a href="pcre.html">PCRE manual page</a>

Empty Constructor. Create a new empty Pcre object. This is the simplest constructor available, you might consider one of the other constructors as a better solution. You need to initialize thie Pcre object, if you use the empty constructor. You can use one of the two available operator= operators to assign it an expression or a Pcre copy.<p>
