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). (The Perl-compatible matching function
|
|
|
|
|
is \fBpcre2_match()\fP.) The arguments for this function are:
|
|
|
|
|
.sp
|
|
|
|
|
\fIcode\fP Points to the compiled pattern
|
|
|
|
|
\fIsubject\fP Points to the subject string
|
|
|
|
|
\fIlength\fP Length of the subject string
|
|
|
|
|
\fIstartoffset\fP Offset in the subject at which to start matching
|
|
|
|
|
\fIoptions\fP Option bits
|
|
|
|
|
\fImatch_data\fP Points to a match data block, for results
|
|
|
|
|
\fImcontext\fP Points to a match context, or is NULL
|
|
|
|
|
\fIworkspace\fP Points to a vector of ints used as working space
|
|
|
|
|
\fIwscount\fP Number of elements in the vector
|
|
|
|
|
.sp
|
|
|
|
|
For \fBpcre2_dfa_match()\fP, a match context is needed only if you want to set
|
2016-12-23 06:04:51 -05:00
|
|
|
up a callout function or specify the recursion limit. The \fIlength\fP and
|
|
|
|
|
\fIstartoffset\fP values are code units, not characters. The options are:

.sp
|
|
|
|
|
PCRE2_ANCHORED Match only at the first position
|
|
|
|
|
PCRE2_NOTBOL Subject is not the beginning of a line
|
|
|
|
|
PCRE2_NOTEOL Subject is not the end of a line
|
|
|
|
|
PCRE2_NOTEMPTY An empty string is not a valid match
|
|
|
|
|
PCRE2_NOTEMPTY_ATSTART An empty string at the start of the subject
|
|
|
|
|
is not a valid match
|
|
|
|
|
PCRE2_NO_UTF_CHECK Do not check the subject for UTF
|
|
|
|
|
validity (only relevant if PCRE2_UTF
|
|
|
|
|
was set at compile time)
|
|
|
|
|
PCRE2_PARTIAL_SOFT Return PCRE2_ERROR_PARTIAL for a partial
|
|
|
|
|
match if no full matches are found
|
|
|
|
|
PCRE2_PARTIAL_HARD Return PCRE2_ERROR_PARTIAL for a partial match
|
|
|
|
|
even if there is a full match as well
|
|
|
|
|
PCRE2_DFA_RESTART Restart after a partial match
|
|
|
|
|
PCRE2_DFA_SHORTEST Return only the shortest match
