PCRE2_SET_OPTIMIZE(3)	    Library Functions Manual	   PCRE2_SET_OPTIMIZE(3)

NAME
     PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <pcre2.h>

     int pcre2_set_optimize(pcre2_compile_context *ccontext,
       uint32_t directive);

DESCRIPTION

     This  function  controls which performance optimizations will be applied by
     pcre2_compile(). It can be called multiple times with the same compile con-
     text; the effects are cumulative, with the effects of  later  calls  taking
     precedence over earlier ones.

     The  result  is  zero for success, PCRE2_ERROR_NULL if ccontext is NULL, or
     PCRE2_ERROR_BADOPTION if directive is unknown. The latter could  be  useful
     to detect if a certain optimization is available.

     The list of possible values for the directive parameter are:

       PCRE2_OPTIMIZATION_FULL	 Enable all optimizations (default)
       PCRE2_OPTIMIZATION_NONE	 Disable all optimizations
       PCRE2_AUTO_POSSESS	 Enable auto-possessification
       PCRE2_AUTO_POSSESS_OFF	 Disable auto-possessification
       PCRE2_DOTSTAR_ANCHOR	 Enable implicit dotstar anchoring
       PCRE2_DOTSTAR_ANCHOR_OFF  Disable implicit dotstar anchoring
       PCRE2_START_OPTIMIZE	 Enable start-up optimizations at match time
       PCRE2_START_OPTIMIZE_OFF  Disable start-up optimizations at match time

     There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API, including detailed
     descriptions directive parameter values in the pcre2api page.
