|
|
After a successful call of \fBpcre2_match()\fP that was passed the match block
|
|
|
|
that is this function's argument, this function returns the code unit offset of
|
2014-10-25 11:51:01 -04:00
|
|
|
the character at which the successful match started. For a non-partial match,
|
|
|
|
this can be different to the value of \fIovector[0]\fP if the pattern contains
|
|
|
|
the \eK escape sequence. After a partial match, however, this value is always
|
|
|
|
the same as \fIovector[0]\fP because \eK does not affect the result of a
|
|
|
|
partial match.
