Subject: [pcre-dev] PCRE2: pcre2_match() no longer accepts
PCRE2_NO_START_OPTIMIZE
In contrast to the old pcre_exec(), the new pcre2_match() no longer accepts PCRE2_NO_START_OPTIMIZE but returns PCRE2_ERROR_BADOPTION instead.
pcre2.h.in documents PCRE2_NO_START_OPTIMIZE as a valid option for pcre2_match():
#define PCRE2_NO_START_OPTIMIZE 0x00008000u /* J M D */
On the other hand, it is missing from the options listed in pcre2_match.html.
What is the correct documentation / behavior? And why the change, if so?
