Otherwise the build may pick up a different one which won't work since BEAM depends on its own modifications to
pcre2.h
.Fixes:
(and several more) when building OTP-28.0 on a mac with
pcre2.h
installed in/opt/homebrew/include/
.The issue can occur on any system where CFLAGS has
-I
addons set to pick up additional headers not installed in the traditional locations known natively by the compiler, i.e. outside of/usr/include/
. The end result is a compile command where those-I
addons precede the-Ipcre
that BEAM adds, and the wrongpcre2.h
is selected.Since BEAM has to use its own
pcre2.h
, the fix is to use an absolute path relative the source file when including it.
