DESCRIPTION


       This  function  returns information about a compiled pattern. Its argu-
       ments are:

         code                      Compiled regular expression
         extra                     Result of pcre[16|32]_study() or NULL
         what                      What information is required

       set, which can
                                           then     be     retrieved     using
       PCRE_INFO_FIRSTCHARACTER,
                                         2 if the first character  is  at  the

                                     be  retrieved  using  PCRE_INFO_REQUIRED-
       CHAR); 0 otherwise

       The where argument must point to an integer variable,  except  for  the
       following what values:

         PCRE_INFO_DEFAULT_TABLES  const uint8_t *
         PCRE_INFO_FIRSTCHARACTER  uint32_t
         PCRE_INFO_FIRSTTABLE      const uint8_t *
         PCRE_INFO_JITSIZE         size_t
         PCRE_INFO_MATCHLIMIT      uint32_t
         PCRE_INFO_NAMETABLE       PCRE_SPTR16           (16-bit library)
         PCRE_INFO_NAMETABLE       PCRE_SPTR32           (32-bit library)
         PCRE_INFO_NAMETABLE       const unsigned char * (8-bit library)
         PCRE_INFO_OPTIONS         unsigned long int

         PCRE_INFO_REQUIREDCHAR    uint32_t

       The yield of the function is zero on success or:

         PCRE_ERROR_NULL           the argument code was NULL
                                   the argument where was NULL
         PCRE_ERROR_BADMAGIC       the "magic number" was not found
         PCRE_ERROR_BADOPTION      the value of what was invalid
         PCRE_ERROR_UNSET          the option was not set

       There  is  a complete description of the PCRE native API in the pcreapi
       page and a description of the POSIX API in the pcreposix page.
