Hi Can anyone explain why ap_regexec can take only NULL terminated string?
I'm working in filter context and want to run regular expression on bucket content (so I have the buffer length). Currently I had to copy the bucket content and add the NULL at the end before passing it to ap_regexec (this is a waste of CPU and memory). The underling PCRE engine support getting the length of the input string (actually ap_regexec just run strlen on the string and pass the result to pcre_exec) Can you consider adding API for this? (Of course it will get the input length as argument) Similar request (from 2002) could be found at http://www.mail-archive.com/dev@httpd.apache.org/msg12986.html but without any reply.
