NAME
PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)
SYNOPSIS
#include <pcre2.h>
int pcre2_set_glob_escape(pcre2_convert_context *cvcontext,
uint32_t escape_char);
DESCRIPTION
This function is part of an experimental set of pattern
conversion functions. It sets the escape character that is used
when converting globs. The second argument must either be zero
(meaning there is no escape character) or a punctuation character
whose code point is less than 256. The default is grave accent if
running under Windows, otherwise backslash. The result of the
function is zero for success or PCRE2_ERROR_BADDATA if the second
argument is invalid.
The pattern conversion functions are described in the
pcre2convert documentation.
