.TH PCRE2_COMPILE 3 "23 March 2015" "PCRE2 10.20"
.SH NAME
PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)
.SH SYNOPSIS
.rs
.sp
.B #include <pcre2.h>
.PP
.nf
.B int pcre2_callout_enumerate(const pcre2_code *\fIcode\fP,
.B " int (*\fIcallback\fP)(pcre2_callout_enumerate_block *, void *),"
.B " void *\fIcallout_data\fP);"
.fi
.
.SH DESCRIPTION
.rs
.sp
This function scans a compiled regular expression and calls the \fIcallback()\fP
function for each callout within the pattern. The yield of the function is zero
for success and non-zero otherwise. The arguments are:
.sp
\fIcode\fP Points to the compiled pattern
\fIcallback\fP The callback function
\fIcallout_data\fP User data that is passed to the callback
.sp
The \fIcallback()\fP function is passed a pointer to a data block containing
the following fields:
.sp
\fIversion\fP Block version number
\fIpattern_position\fP Offset to next item in pattern
\fInext_item_length\fP Length of next item in pattern
\fIcallout_number\fP Number for numbered callouts
\fIcallout_string_offset\fP Offset to string within pattern
\fIcallout_string_length\fP Length of callout string
\fIcallout_string\fP Points to callout string or is NULL
.sp
The second argument is the callout data that was passed to
\fBpcre2_callout_enumerate()\fP. The \fBcallback()\fP function must return zero
for success. Any other value causes the pattern scan to stop, with the value
being passed back as the result of \fBpcre2_callout_enumerate()\fP.
