pcre2-10.43

[Douglas R. Reno]

New minor version

[Joe Locash]

10.43 has been released.

Version 10.43 16-February-2024
------------------------------

There are quite a lot of changes in this release (see ChangeLog and git log for
a list). Those that are not bugfixes or code tidies are:

* The JIT code no longer supports ARMv5 architecture.

* A new function pcre2_get_match_data_heapframes_size() for finer heap control.

* New option flags to restrict the interaction between ASCII and non-ASCII
  characters for caseless matching and \d and friends. There are also new
  pattern constructs to control these flags from within a pattern.

* Upgrade to Unicode 15.0.0.

* Treat a NULL pattern with zero length as an empty string.

* Added support for limited-length variable-length lookbehind assertions, with
  a default maximum length of 255 characters (same as Perl) but with a function
  to adjust the limit.

* Support for LoongArch in JIT.

* Perl changed the meaning of (for example) {,3} which did not used to be
  recognized as a quantifier. Now it means {0,3} and PCRE2 has also changed.
  Note that {,} is still not a quantifier.

* Following Perl, allow spaces and tabs after { and before } in all Perl-
  compatible items that use braces, and also around commas in quantifiers. The
  one exception in PCRE2 is \u{...}, which is from ECMAScript, not Perl, and
  PCRE2 follows ECMAScript usage.

* Changed the meaning of \w and its synonyms and derivatives (\b and \B) in UCP
  mode to follow Perl. It now matches characters whose general categories are L
  or N or whose particular categories are Mn (non-spacing mark) or Pc
  (combining punctuation).

* Changed the default meaning of [:xdigit:] in UCP mode to follow Perl. It now
  matches the "fullwidth" versions of hex digits. PCRE2_EXTRA_ASCII_DIGIT can
  be used to keep it ASCII only.

* Make PCRE2_UCP the default in UTF mode in pcre2grep and add -no_ucp,
  --case-restrict and --posix-digit.

* Add --group-separator and --no-group-separator to pcre2grep.
