two different lines be regarded as same element

[goog]

// create new set
        PblSet *the_fresh = pblSetNewHashSet();

        while(fgets(path, PATH_MAX, fp)  != NULL)
        {

            if(regex_match(&reg_ssh_conn, path))
            {
                printf("-------------------\n");
                printf("we matched. %s and the path length %ld.\n", path, strlen(path));

                ret = pblSetAdd(the_fresh, path);
                printf("pblSetAdd return value %d.\n", ret);

            }

        }

        pclose(fp);
        // setprint
        pblSetPrint(stdout, the_fresh);

below is the log

Set element does not support the long string like "0 0 127.0.0.1:22 127.0.0.1:55648 ESTABLISHED -"?

You are adding the address of path twice to the set, therefore you will only have one element after the two additions. If you want to add char* strings to a hash set, you have to copy them to the heap yourself, pbl will not do that for you. Plus you should also set a char* string specific compare function to the hash set.
