17 This function builds a set of character tables for character values
18 less than 256. These can be passed to pcre2_compile() in a compile con‐
19 text in order to override the internal, built-in tables (which were
20 either defaulted or made by pcre2_maketables() when PCRE2 was com‐
21 piled). See the pcre2_set_character_tables() page. You might want to do
22 this if you are using a non-standard locale.
23
24 If the argument is NULL, malloc() is used to get memory for the tables.
25 Otherwise it must point to a general context, which can supply pointers
26 to a custom memory manager. The function yields a pointer to the
27 tables.

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