.SH DESCRIPTION
.rs
.sp
This function matches a compiled regular expression against a given subject
string, using an alternative matching algorithm that scans the subject string
just once (\fInot\fP Perl-compatible). Note that the main, Perl-compatible,
matching function is \fBpcre_exec()\fP. The arguments for this function are:
.sp
\fIcode\fP Points to the compiled pattern
\fIextra\fP Points to an associated \fBpcre_extra\fP structure,
or is NULL
\fIsubject\fP Points to the subject string
\fIlength\fP Length of the subject string, in bytes
\fIstartoffset\fP Offset in bytes in the subject at which to
start matching
\fIoptions\fP Option bits
\fIovector\fP Points to a vector of ints for result offsets
\fIovecsize\fP Number of elements in the vector
\fIworkspace\fP Points to a vector of ints used as working space
\fIwscount\fP Number of elements in the vector
.sp
The options are:
.sp
PCRE_ANCHORED Match only at the first position
PCRE_BSR_ANYCRLF \eR matches only CR, LF, or CRLF
PCRE_BSR_UNICODE \eR matches all Unicode line endings
PCRE_NEWLINE_ANY Recognize any Unicode newline sequence
PCRE_NEWLINE_ANYCRLF Recognize CR, LF, & CRLF as newline sequences
PCRE_NEWLINE_CR Recognize CR as the only newline sequence
PCRE_NEWLINE_CRLF Recognize CRLF as the only newline sequence
PCRE_NEWLINE_LF Recognize LF as the only newline sequence
PCRE_NOTBOL Subject is not the beginning of a line
PCRE_NOTEOL Subject is not the end of a line
PCRE_NOTEMPTY An empty string is not a valid match
PCRE_NOTEMPTY_ATSTART An empty string at the start of the subject
is not a valid match
PCRE_NO_START_OPTIMIZE Do not do "start-match" optimizations
PCRE_NO_UTF8_CHECK Do not check the subject for UTF-8
validity (only relevant if PCRE_UTF8
was set at compile time)
PCRE_PARTIAL ) Return PCRE_ERROR_PARTIAL for a partial
PCRE_PARTIAL_SOFT ) match if no full matches are found
PCRE_PARTIAL_HARD Return PCRE_ERROR_PARTIAL for a partial match
even if there is a full match as well
PCRE_DFA_SHORTEST Return only the shortest match
PCRE_DFA_RESTART Restart after a partial match
.sp
There are restrictions on what may appear in a pattern when using this matching
function. Details are given in the
.\" HREF
\fBpcrematching\fP
.\"
documentation. For details of partial matching, see the
.\" HREF
\fBpcrepartial\fP
.\"
page.
.P
A \fBpcre_extra\fP structure contains the following fields:
.sp
\fIflags\fP Bits indicating which fields are set
\fIstudy_data\fP Opaque data from \fBpcre_study()\fP
\fImatch_limit\fP Limit on internal resource use
\fImatch_limit_recursion\fP Limit on internal recursion depth
\fIcallout_data\fP Opaque data passed back to callouts
\fItables\fP Points to character tables or is NULL
.sp
The flag bits are PCRE_EXTRA_STUDY_DATA, PCRE_EXTRA_MATCH_LIMIT,
PCRE_EXTRA_MATCH_LIMIT_RECURSION, PCRE_EXTRA_CALLOUT_DATA, and
PCRE_EXTRA_TABLES. For this matching function, the \fImatch_limit\fP and
\fImatch_limit_recursion\fP fields are not used, and must not be set.
