I started out cleaning up a bit of lint in the recent run-time options
handling and discovered that pmatchregex wasn't finished. Finish it and
also deal with the version lint. Argument declarations for function
definitions in pmatchregex.c have been switched to K&R style. (The ones
in posixregex.c have been left in ANSI style.)
There wasn't any build rule for pmatchregex.o; now there is (for Unix).
posixregex.o is still the default.
There isn't any build rule for cppregex.o (again, for Unix); the change
to cppregex.cpp is untested.
Changes to be committed:
modified: src/version.c
modified: sys/share/cppregex.cpp
modified: sys/share/pmatchregex.c
modified: sys/share/posixregex.c
modified: util/makedefs.c
Some options in 3.6.0 are determined by what you link with.
The choice of regex support is one.
Let #version show that linked option along with the compile-time options.
The intent is to look for platform-specific facilities for regex
matching, to provide portable MENUCOLORS configuration files.
This is a prototype implementation being committed to see if Windows can
use the POSIX regex implementation provided with the C++11 standard
library. If this works, I will write a harness for POSIX regexes and for
pmatch(), and those can be linked in by platforms as appropriate.
pmatch() should be used only as a very last resort, because it breaks
compatibility between platforms.
