Oniguruma
=========

https://github.com/kkos/oniguruma

Oniguruma is a modern and flexible regular expressions library. It
encompasses features from different regular expression implementations
that traditionally exist in different languages.

Character encoding can be specified per regular expression object.

Supported character encodings:

  ASCII, UTF-8, UTF-16BE, UTF-16LE, UTF-32BE, UTF-32LE,
  EUC-JP, EUC-TW, EUC-KR, EUC-CN,
  Shift_JIS, Big5, GB18030, KOI8-R, CP1251,
  ISO-8859-1, ISO-8859-2, ISO-8859-3, ISO-8859-4, ISO-8859-5,
  ISO-8859-6, ISO-8859-7, ISO-8859-8, ISO-8859-9, ISO-8859-10,
  ISO-8859-11, ISO-8859-13, ISO-8859-14, ISO-8859-15, ISO-8859-16

Install
-------

### Case 1: Unix and Cygwin platform

   1. autoreconf -vfi   (* case: configure script is not found.)

   2. ./configure
   3. make
   4. make install

   * uninstall

     make uninstall

   * configuration check

     onig-config --cflags
     onig-config --libs
     onig-config --prefix
     onig-config --exec-prefix



### Case 2: Windows 64/32bit platform (Visual Studio)

   Execute make_win.bat

      onig_s.lib:  static link library
      onig.dll:    dynamic link library

   * test (ASCII/Shift_JIS)

      1. cd src
      2. copy ..\windows\testc.c .
      3. nmake -f Makefile.windows ctest

   (I have checked by Visual Studio Community 2015)



Regular Expressions
-------------------

  See [doc/RE](doc/RE) or [doc/RE.ja](doc/RE.ja) for Japanese.


Usage
-----

  Include oniguruma.h in your program. (Oniguruma API)
  See doc/API for Oniguruma API.

  If you want to disable UChar type (== unsigned char) definition
  in oniguruma.h, define ONIG_ESCAPE_UCHAR_COLLISION and then 
  include oniguruma.h.

  If you want to disable regex_t type definition in oniguruma.h,
  define ONIG_ESCAPE_REGEX_T_COLLISION and then include oniguruma.h.

  Example of the compiling/linking command line in Unix or Cygwin,
  (prefix == /usr/local case)

    cc sample.c -L/usr/local/lib -lonig


  If you want to use static link library(onig_s.lib) in Win32,
  add option -DONIG_EXTERN=extern to C compiler.
