SYNOPSIS top


       #include <pcre2.h>

       int pcre2_set_newline(pcre2_compile_context *ccontext,
         uint32_t value);

DESCRIPTION top


       This function sets the newline convention within a compile
       context. This specifies which character(s) are recognized as
       newlines when compiling and matching patterns. The second
       argument must be one of:

         PCRE2_NEWLINE_CR        Carriage return only
         PCRE2_NEWLINE_LF        Linefeed only
         PCRE2_NEWLINE_CRLF      CR followed by LF only
         PCRE2_NEWLINE_ANYCRLF   Any of the above
         PCRE2_NEWLINE_ANY       Any Unicode newline sequence
         PCRE2_NEWLINE_NUL       The NUL character (binary zero)

       The result is zero for success or PCRE2_ERROR_BADDATA if the
       second argument is invalid.

       There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API in the
       pcre2api page and a description of the POSIX API in the
       pcre2posix page.
