🌸 NAME 🌸

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

       #include <pcre2.h>

       int pcre2_set_offset_limit(pcre2_match_context *mcontext,
         PCRE2_SIZE value);

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So this function sets the offset limit field in a match context. That's the whole move. The result? Always zero. Not "maybe zero," not "zero if the stars align" — always zero. 🎀

There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API in the pcre2api page, and a description of the POSIX API in the pcre2posix page. iykyk ✨
