+.TH PCRESAMPLE 3 "10 January 2012" "PCRE 8.30"
+.SH NAME
+PCRE - Perl-compatible regular expressions
+.SH "PCRE SAMPLE PROGRAM"
+.rs
+.sp
+A simple, complete demonstration program, to get you started with using PCRE,
+is supplied in the file \fIpcredemo.c\fP in the PCRE distribution. A listing of
+this program is given in the
+.\" HREF
+\fBpcredemo\fP
+.\"
+documentation. If you do not have a copy of the PCRE distribution, you can save
+this listing to re-create \fIpcredemo.c\fP.
+.P
+The demonstration program, which uses the original PCRE 8-bit library, compiles
+the regular expression that is its first argument, and matches it against the
+subject string in its second argument. No PCRE options are set, and default
+character tables are used. If matching succeeds, the program outputs the
+portion of the subject that matched, together with the contents of any captured
+substrings.
+.P
+If the -g option is given on the command line, the program then goes on to
+check for further matches of the same regular expression in the same subject
+string. The logic is a little bit tricky because of the possibility of matching
+an empty string. Comments in the code explain what is going on.
+.P
+If PCRE is installed in the standard include and library directories for your
+operating system, you should be able to compile the demonstration program using
+this command:
+.sp
+  gcc -o pcredemo pcredemo.c -lpcre
+.sp
+If PCRE is installed elsewhere, you may need to add additional options to the
+command line. For example, on a Unix-like system that has PCRE installed in
+\fI/usr/local\fP, you can compile the demonstration program using a command
+like this:
+.sp
+.\" JOINSH
+  gcc -o pcredemo -I/usr/local/include pcredemo.c \e
+      -L/usr/local/lib -lpcre
+.sp
+In a Windows environment, if you want to statically link the program against a
+non-dll \fBpcre.a\fP file, you must uncomment the line that defines PCRE_STATIC
+before including \fBpcre.h\fP, because otherwise the \fBpcre_malloc()\fP and
+\fBpcre_free()\fP exported functions will be declared
+\fB__declspec(dllimport)\fP, with unwanted results.
+.P
+Once you have compiled and linked the demonstration program, you can run simple
+tests like this:
+.sp
+  ./pcredemo 'cat|dog' 'the cat sat on the mat'
+  ./pcredemo -g 'cat|dog' 'the dog sat on the cat'
+.sp
+Note that there is a much more comprehensive test program, called
+.\" HREF
+\fBpcretest\fP,
+.\"
+which supports many more facilities for testing regular expressions and both
+PCRE libraries. The
+.\" HREF
+\fBpcredemo\fP
+.\"
+program is provided as a simple coding example.
+.P
+If you try to run
+.\" HREF
+\fBpcredemo\fP
+.\"
+when PCRE is not installed in the standard library directory, you may get an
+error like this on some operating systems (e.g. Solaris):
+.sp
+  ld.so.1: a.out: fatal: libpcre.so.0: open failed: No such file or directory
+.sp
+This is caused by the way shared library support works on those systems. You
+need to add
+.sp
+  -R/usr/local/lib
+.sp
+(for example) to the compile command to get round this problem.
