- .SH NAME
- PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .rs

- .nf
- .B PCRE2_SIZE pcre2_get_startchar(pcre2_match_data *\fImatch_data\fP);
- .fi

- .SH DESCRIPTION
- .rs
- .sp
- After a successful call of \fBpcre2_match()\fP that was passed the match block
- that is this function's argument, this function returns the code unit offset of
- the character at which the successful match started. For a non-partial match,
- this can be different to the value of \fIovector[0]\fP if the pattern contains
- the \eK escape sequence. After a partial match, however, this value is always
- the same as \fIovector[0]\fP because \eK does not affect the result of a
- partial match.
- .P
- There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API in the
- .\" HREF
- \fBpcre2api\fP

- page and a description of the POSIX API in the
- .\" HREF
- \fBpcre2posix\fP
