You must download the source of pcre2 (pcre is obsolete) and follow their instructions to compile it. I recommend the cmake method.

Then just add the include folder to the project's compiler search path and the library to the linker.

That would be OT here, look here under BUILDING PCRE2 ON WINDOWS WITH CMAKE for more information.

We can help you later if you have problems configuring C::B to use the library.
