| .TH PCRE2_JIT_COMPILE 3 "29 July 2019" "PCRE2 10.34" |
| .SH NAME |
| PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API) |
| .SH SYNOPSIS |
| .rs |
| .sp |
| .B #include <pcre2.h> |
| .PP |
| .nf |
| .B int pcre2_jit_compile(pcre2_code *\fIcode\fP, uint32_t \fIoptions\fP); |
| .fi |
| . |
| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| .rs |
| .sp |
| 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 \fBpcre2_match()\fP interpretive matching function. Full |
| details are given in the |
| .\" HREF |
| \fBpcre2jit\fP |
| .\" |
| documentation. |
| .P |
| The first argument is a pointer that was returned by a successful call to |
| \fBpcre2_compile()\fP, and the second must contain one or more of the following |
| bits: |
| .sp |
| 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 |
| .sp |
| There is also an obsolete option called PCRE2_JIT_INVALID_UTF, which has been |
| superseded by the \fBpcre2_compile()\fP option PCRE2_MATCH_INVALID_UTF. The old |
| option is deprecated and may be removed in the future. |
| .P |
| 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 \fIoptions\fP. The function can also return |
| PCRE2_ERROR_NOMEMORY if JIT is unable to allocate executable memory for the |
| compiler, even if it was because of a system security restriction. |
| .P |
| There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API in the |
| .\" HREF |
| \fBpcre2api\fP |
| .\" |
| page and a description of the POSIX API in the |
| .\" HREF |
| \fBpcre2posix\fP |
