Match through the string Testing3 and return the address of the character after the last matched char-
acter (cursor+11). The string Testing3 will be copied to the character array ret0.
char ret0[9];
char ∗newcursor, *name;
...
name = regcmp("([A -Za-z][A-Za-z0-9_]{0,7})$0", 0);
newcursor = regex(name, "123Testing321", ret0);
WARNINGS
User programs that use regcmp() might run out of memory if regcmp() is called iteratively without
freeing vectors that are no longer required.
Obsolescent Interfaces
regcmp() and regex() are to be obsoleted at a future date.
