Subject: [pcre-dev] question usage of pcre_exec

Hello,

    at first, I'd like to thank you for your library, it is a very effective product.
    However, I have a question about use,
    when you execute a pcre_exec, es Can you find the pattern that matches the desired chain?

    example

         str = "aaa*|bbb*|ccc*"
         regexp = pcre_compile(str.....)

         retcode = pcre_exec(regexp,..."bbbTEST")

         thah it is possible to found with "retcode" that the string "aaaTEST" corresponds to the pattern "bbb*"

    thank you for your help
