PCRE2_JIT_STACK_CREATE 3 "24 March 2017" "PCRE2 10.30"
NAME
PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)
SYNOPSIS
.rs
#include <pcre2.h>
pcre2_jit_stack *pcre2_jit_stack_create(PCRE2_SIZE startsize, " PCRE2_SIZE maxsize, pcre2_general_context *gcontext);".
DESCRIPTION
.rs
This function is used to create a stack for use by the code compiled by the JIT
compiler. The first two arguments are a starting size for the stack, and a
maximum size to which it is allowed to grow. The final argument is a general
context, for memory allocation functions, or NULL for standard memory
allocation. The result can be passed to the JIT run-time code by calling
pcre2_jit_stack_assign() to associate the stack with a compiled pattern,
which can then be processed by pcre2_match() or pcre2_jit_match().
A maximum stack size of 512KiB to 1MiB should be more than enough for any
pattern. For more details, see the
HREFpcre2jit
page.
