Without a subsequent call to 30<b>pcre2_jit_compile()</b>, the copy can be used only for non-JIT matching. The 31pointer to the character tables is copied, not the tables themselves (see 32<b>pcre2_code_copy_with_tables()</b>). The yield of the function is NULL if 33<i>code</i> is NULL or if sufficient memory cannot be obtained. 34</P> 35<P> 36There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API in the 37<a href="pcre2api.html"><b>pcre2api</b></a> 38page and a description of the POSIX API in the 39<a href="pcre2posix.html"><b>pcre2posix</b></a> 40page. 41<p> 42Return to the <a href="index.html">PCRE2 index page</a>. 43</p> 44
