[pcre-dev] Multisegment match issue

Good day, Philip!

Suppose input string 'abcd' must be matched against pattern '\Ac|e'.
It's obviously that result must be 'no match'.

But input string arrives not at once but by two chunks:
1. ab
2. cd
Application attempts to match 'ab' with 'partial hard' option. No match detected.
Then application attempts to match 'cd'. And it matched.
And whole input string is erroneously matched.

I don't know a way for application to correctly match multisegment strings against such patterns. May be some extra functionality can be added to PCRE.
For example, a possibility to tell to PCRE that first symbol of input string is not a first symbol of whole string.

Thanx.
