## Macros
#define | REFLEX_NONCHAR (0x200000)
| Replace invalid UTF-8 with the non-character U+200000 code point for guaranteed error detection (the U+FFFD code point makes error detection harder and possible to miss). More...
#define | REFLEX_NONCHAR_UTF8 "\xf8\x88\x80\x80\x80"

## Functions
std::string | reflex::latin1 (int a, int b, int esc= 'x', bool brackets=true)
| Convert an 8-bit ASCII + Latin-1 Supplement range [a,b] to a regex pattern. More...
std::string | reflex::utf8 (int a, int b, int esc= 'x', const char *par="(", bool strict=true)
| Convert a UCS-4 range [a,b] to a UTF-8 regex pattern. More...
size_t | reflex::utf8 (int c, char *s)
| Convert UCS-4 to UTF-8, fills with REFLEX_NONCHAR_UTF8 when out of range, or unrestricted UTF-8 with WITH_UTF8_UNRESTRICTED. More...
int | reflex::utf8 (const char *s, const char **r=NULL)
| Convert UTF-8 to UCS, returns REFLEX_NONCHAR for invalid UTF-8 except for MUTF-8 U+0000 and 0xD800-0xDFFF surrogate halves (use WITH_UTF8_UNRESTRICTED to remove any limits on UTF-8 encodings up to 6 bytes). More...
std::wstring | reflex::wcs (const char *s, size_t n)
| Convert UTF-8 string to wide string. More...
std::wstring | reflex::wcs (const std::string &s)
| Convert UTF-8 string to wide string. More...
