PCRE2_JIT_COMPILE 3 "21 October 2014" "PCRE2 10.00"
NAME
PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)
SYNOPSIS
.rs
#include <pcre2.h>
int pcre2_jit_compile(pcre2_code *code, uint32_t options);
.
DESCRIPTION
.rs
This function requests JIT compilation, which, if the just-in-time compiler is
available, further processes a compiled pattern into machine code that executes
much faster than the pcre2_match() interpretive matching function. Full
details are given in the
HREFpcre2jit
documentation.
The first argument is a pointer that was returned by a successful call to pcre2_compile(), and the second must contain one or more of the following bits: PCRE2_JIT_COMPLETE compile code for full matching PCRE2_JIT_PARTIAL_SOFT compile code for soft partial matching PCRE2_JIT_PARTIAL_HARD compile code for hard partial matching The yield of the function is 0 for success, or a negative error code otherwise. In particular, PCRE2_ERROR_JIT_BADOPTION is returned if JIT is not supported or if an unknown bit is set in options.
There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API in the
HREF
pcre2api
page and a description of the POSIX API in the
HREF
pcre2posix
page.
