3 PCRE - Perl-compatible regular expressions
10 .B int pcre_fullinfo(const pcre *\fIcode\fP, "const pcre_extra *\fIextra\fP,"
12 .B int \fIwhat\fP, void *\fIwhere\fP);
14 .B int pcre16_fullinfo(const pcre16 *\fIcode\fP, "const pcre16_extra *\fIextra\fP,"
16 .B int \fIwhat\fP, void *\fIwhere\fP);
21 This function returns information about a compiled pattern. Its arguments are:
23 \fIcode\fP Compiled regular expression
24 \fIextra\fP Result of \fBpcre[16]_study()\fP or NULL
25 \fIwhat\fP What information is required
26 \fIwhere\fP Where to put the information
28 The following information is available:
30 PCRE_INFO_BACKREFMAX Number of highest back reference
31 PCRE_INFO_CAPTURECOUNT Number of capturing subpatterns
32 PCRE_INFO_DEFAULT_TABLES Pointer to default tables
33 PCRE_INFO_FIRSTBYTE Fixed first data unit for a match, or
34 -1 for start of string
37 PCRE_INFO_FIRSTTABLE Table of first data units (after studying)
38 PCRE_INFO_HASCRORLF Return 1 if explicit CR or LF matches exist
39 PCRE_INFO_JCHANGED Return 1 if (?J) or (?-J) was used
40 PCRE_INFO_JIT Return 1 after successful JIT compilation
41 PCRE_INFO_JITSIZE Size of JIT compiled code
42 PCRE_INFO_LASTLITERAL Literal last data unit required
43 PCRE_INFO_MINLENGTH Lower bound length of matching strings
44 PCRE_INFO_NAMECOUNT Number of named subpatterns
45 PCRE_INFO_NAMEENTRYSIZE Size of name table entry
46 PCRE_INFO_NAMETABLE Pointer to name table
47 PCRE_INFO_OKPARTIAL Return 1 if partial matching can be tried
48 (always returns 1 after release 8.00)
49 PCRE_INFO_OPTIONS Option bits used for compilation
50 PCRE_INFO_SIZE Size of compiled pattern
51 PCRE_INFO_STUDYSIZE Size of study data
53 The \fIwhere\fP argument must point to an integer variable, except for the
54 following \fIwhat\fP values:
56 PCRE_INFO_DEFAULT_TABLES const unsigned char *
57 PCRE_INFO_FIRSTTABLE const unsigned char *
58 PCRE_INFO_NAMETABLE PCRE_SPTR16 (16-bit library)
59 PCRE_INFO_NAMETABLE const unsigned char * (8-bit library)
60 PCRE_INFO_OPTIONS unsigned long int
63 The yield of the function is zero on success or:
65 PCRE_ERROR_NULL the argument \fIcode\fP was NULL
66 the argument \fIwhere\fP was NULL
67 PCRE_ERROR_BADMAGIC the "magic number" was not found
68 PCRE_ERROR_BADOPTION the value of \fIwhat\fP was invalid
