This function studies a compiled pattern, to see if additional information can |
| 24 |
|
|
be extracted that might speed up matching. Its arguments are: |

|
|
<pre> |
| 28 |
|
|
<i>code</i> A compiled regular expression |
| 29 |
|
|
<i>options</i> Options for <b>pcre_study()</b> |
| 30 |
|
|
<i>errptr</i> Where to put an error message |
| 31 |
|

</PRE> |

<P> |

|
If the function returns NULL, either it could not find any additional |
| 35 |
|
|
information, or there was an error. You can tell the difference by looking at |
| 36 |
|
|
the error value. It is NULL in first case. |
| 37 |

|
<P> |

|
There are currently no options defined; the value of the second argument should |
| 40 |
|
|
always be zero. |
