In Unix-like environments, if PCRE is installed in your standard system |

|
libraries, you should be able to compile this program using this command: |
12 |
|
|
13 |
gcc -Wall pcredemo.c -I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib \ |
gcc -Wall pcredemo.c -lpcre -o pcredemo |

If PCRE is not installed in a standard place, it is likely to be installed with |
16 |
|
support for the pkg-config mechanism. If you have pkg-config, you can compile |
17 |
|
this program using this command: |
18 |
|
|
19 |
|
gcc -Wall pcredemo.c `pkg-config --cflags --libs libpcre` -o pcredemo |
20 |
|
|
21 |
|
If you do not have pkg-config, you may have to use this: |
22 |
|
|
23 |
|
gcc -Wall pcredemo.c -I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib \ |
