C语言中利用PCRE正则表达式

最段时间可能会用到C语言进行字符串处理，PCRE正则表达式是很重要的一个工具，关于C语言的接口的例子在网上不是很多，在此收录一下。

#include <stdio.h>
#include <pcre.h>
#include <string.h>

#define OVECCOUNT 30 /*should be a multiple of 3*/
#define PCRE_STATIC  /*static compile option */

#define EBUFLEN 128
#define BUFLEN 65536


int main(){
	pcre *re;
	const char *error;
	int erroffset;
	int ovector[OVECCOUNT];
	int rc,i;

	char src[]="111<title>Hello World</title>222";
	char pattern[]="<title>(.*)</(tit)le>";
	printf("string:%s\n",src);
	printf("pattern:%s\n",pattern);
	re=pcre_compile(pattern,0,&error,&erroffset,NULL);
	if(re==NULL){
		printf("pcre compilation failed at offset %d:%s\n",erroffset,error);
		return 1;
	}
	rc=pcre_exec(re,NULL,src,strlen(src),0,0,ovector,OVECCOUNT);
	if(rc<0){
		if(rc==PCRE_ERROR_NOMATCH){
			printf("sorry ,no match ...\n");
		}
		else{
			printf("matching error %d\n",rc);
			pcre_free(re);
			return 1;
		}
	}
	printf("\nok ,has matched ...\n\n");
	for(i=0;i<rc;i++){
		char *substring_start=src+ovector[2*i];
		int substring_length=ovector[2*i+1]-ovector[2*i];
		printf("$%2d :%.*s\n",i,substring_length,substring_start);　/* 注意这里　%.*的用法 */
	}
	pcre_free(re);
	return 0;
}
