For a non-partial match, this can be different to the value of <i>ovector[0]</i> if the pattern contains the \K escape sequence. After a partial match, however, this value is always the same as <i>ovector[0]</i> because \K does not affect the result of a partial match. </P> <P> There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API in the <a href="pcre2api.html"><b>pcre2api</b></a> page and a description of the POSIX API in the <a href="pcre2posix.html"><b>pcre2posix</b></a> page. <p> Return to the <a href="index.html">PCRE2 index page</a>. </p>
