That's equivalent to the Perl /x option, and should not be turned on by
default, as it causes pcre to ignore whitespace and Perl-style comments.
It has nothing to do with the Perl extensions to Posix regex syntax --
they are always turned on.
Ok.
I do urge you to configure pcre with --enable-utf8 and
--enable-unicode-properties so that it will work correctly with the utf8
egg (provided the UTF-8 options are used at pattern compile and pattern
exec time).
Yes, that is enabled directly by preprocessor definitions.
I assume you are providing access to the native interface,
not just the Posix-compatible one.
You mean "pcre_..."? Yes.
cheers,
felix
