Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

.Ef

.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn re_comp
|
|
function
|
|
compiles a string into an internal form suitable for pattern matching.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn re_exec
|
|
function
|
|
checks the argument string against the last string passed to
|
|
.Fn re_comp .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn re_comp
|
|
function
|
|
returns 0 if the string
|
|
.Fa s
|
|
was compiled successfully; otherwise a string containing an
|
|
error message is returned.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fn re_comp
|
|
is passed 0 or a null string, it returns without changing the currently
|
|
compiled regular expression.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn re_exec
|
|
function
|
|
returns 1 if the string
|
|
.Fa s
|
|
matches the last compiled regular expression, 0 if the string
|
|
.Fa s
|
|
failed to match the last compiled regular expression, and \-1 if the compiled
|
|
regular expression was invalid (indicating an internal error).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The strings passed to both
|
|
.Fn re_comp
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn re_exec
|
|
may have trailing or embedded newline characters;
|
|
they are terminated by
|
|
.Dv NUL Ns s .
|
|
