* Hi, Philip!
We were wondering what do you think about adding the following pcre behviour when multi segment matching is used with pcre_dfa_exec(): At the moment, patterns that contain alternatives at the top level are somehow problematic as only alternatives that match at lowest point in the subject are remembered. As a result matches might be missed for alternatives which share the same characters. We thought it might be useful to be able to define the number “saved” points or at least return an indication that matches might be missed. (and then let the caller of pcre_dfa_exec) decides if linearization should be used to find possible lost matches. Many thanks, E. * -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/pcre-dev
