Compile StreamDevice with PCRE on windows

["Neidherr, Dennis Dr. via Tech-talk" <tech-talk at aps.anl.gov>]

Dear all,

I just tried to compile StreamDevice on windows with the PCRE package active. Without this package everything works fine. But I don't get PCRE working.

So what did I do:
I downloaded PCRE (pre-compiled) at Sourceforge as described here (https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://paulscherrerinstitute.github.io/StreamDevice/setup.html__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!ZfKA6yWdFPFiCYl7MTE8FME6NieocxQMXHjO3TZUaz5u4e8C3576MhzCkeSlf_dEIJFVlZg4VWcZ7YjAKclB-u7s$ ). Then I installed the executable next to my other modules. So it looks like:

...\EPICS\modules\asyn-R4-43
...\EPICS\modules\StreamDevice-2.8.26
....\EPICS\modules\PCRE

Then I modified my RELEASE.local file in StreamDevice and added the entry for PCRE (between ASYN and Base):
PCRE=...\EPICS\modules\PCRE (I just deleted the first part of the path here for this text)

But when I try to compile it now, I get the following error:
make[2]: *** No rule to make target '../../lib/windows-x64/pcre.lib', needed by 'stream.dll'.  Stop.
If I interpret it correctly then he searches for the file "pcre.lib" in "...\EPICS\modules\StreamDevice-2.8.26\lib\windows-x64".
But this is for sure wrong.

Do I have to add another path somewhere else before compiling?

I think I will soon switch to linux anyway, so this problem here will solve by itself, but nevertheless I would like to know what I am doing wrong.

Thanks and Greetings
Dennis
