Janis Danisevskis112c9cc2016-03-31 13:35:25 +0100[diff] [blame]4PCRE2 is a library of functions to support regular expressions whose syntax
Nick Kralevichf73ff172014-09-27 12:41:49 -0700[diff] [blame]5and semantics are as close as possible to those of the Perl 5 language.

13The basic library functions are written in C and are freestanding. Also
Janis Danisevskis112c9cc2016-03-31 13:35:25 +0100[diff] [blame]14included in the distribution is a just-in-time compiler that can be used to
15optimize pattern matching. This is an optional feature that can be omitted when
16the library is built.

85EXEMPTION FOR BINARY LIBRARY-LIKE PACKAGES
86------------------------------------------
87
88The second condition in the BSD licence (covering binary redistributions) does
89not apply all the way down a chain of software. If binary package A includes
90PCRE2, it must respect the condition, but if package B is software that
91includes package A, the condition is not imposed on package B unless it uses
92PCRE2 independently.
