PCRE - Perl-compatible regular expressions
#include <pcre.h>
int pcre_jit_exec(const pcre *code, const pcre_extra *extra,
const char *subject, int length, int startoffset,
int options, int *ovector, int ovecsize,
pcre_jit_stack *jstack);
int pcre16_jit_exec(const pcre16 *code, const pcre16_extra *extra,
PCRE_SPTR16 subject, int length, int startoffset,

int pcre32_jit_exec(const pcre32 *code, const pcre32_extra *extra,

int options, int *ovector, int ovecsize,
pcre_jit_stack *jstack);
This function matches a compiled regular expression that has been
successfully studied with one of the JIT options against a given
subject string, using a matching algorithm that is similar to Perl's.
It is a "fast path" interface to JIT, and it bypasses some of the
sanity checks that pcre_exec() applies. It returns offsets to
captured substrings. Its arguments are:
code Points to the compiled pattern
extra Points to an associated pcre[16|32]_extra structure,
or is NULL
subject Points to the subject string
length Length of the subject string, in bytes
startoffset Offset in bytes in the subject at which to
start matching
options Option bits
ovector Points to a vector of ints for result offsets
ovecsize Number of elements in the vector (a multiple of 3)
jstack Pointer to a JIT stack
The allowed options are:
PCRE_NOTBOL Subject string is not the beginning of a
line
PCRE_NOTEOL Subject string is not the end of a line
PCRE_NOTEMPTY An empty string is not a valid match
PCRE_NOTEMPTY_ATSTART An empty string at the start of the subject
is not a valid match
PCRE_NO_UTF16_CHECK Do not check the subject for UTF-16
validity (only relevant if PCRE_UTF16
was set at compile time)
PCRE_NO_UTF32_CHECK Do not check the subject for UTF-32
validity (only relevant if PCRE_UTF32
was set at compile time)
PCRE_NO_UTF8_CHECK Do not check the subject for UTF-8
validity (only relevant if PCRE_UTF8
was set at compile time)
PCRE_PARTIAL ) Return PCRE_ERROR_PARTIAL for a partial
PCRE_PARTIAL_SOFT ) match if no full matches are found
PCRE_PARTIAL_HARD Return PCRE_ERROR_PARTIAL for a partial
match
if that is found before a full match
However, the PCRE_NO_UTF[8|16|32]_CHECK options have no effect, as
this check is never applied. For details of partial matching, see the
pcrepartial page. A pcre_extra structure contains the following
fields:
flags Bits indicating which fields are set
study_data Opaque data from pcre[16|32]_study()
match_limit Limit on internal resource use
match_limit_recursion Limit on internal recursion depth
callout_data Opaque data passed back to callouts
tables Points to character tables or is NULL
mark For passing back a *MARK pointer
executable_jit Opaque data from JIT compilation
The flag bits are PCRE_EXTRA_STUDY_DATA, PCRE_EXTRA_MATCH_LIMIT,
PCRE_EXTRA_MATCH_LIMIT_RECURSION, PCRE_EXTRA_CALLOUT_DATA,
PCRE_EXTRA_TABLES, PCRE_EXTRA_MARK and PCRE_EXTRA_EXECUTABLE_JIT.
