Predefined Constants
The constants below are defined by this extension, and will only be available when the extension has either been compiled into PHP or dynamically loaded at runtime.
| Constants | Description | As of |
|---|---|---|
PREG_PATTERN_ORDER |
Orders results so that $matches[0] is an array of full pattern matches, $matches[1] is an array of strings matched by the first parenthesized subpattern, and so on. This flag is only used with preg_match_all(). | |
PREG_SET_ORDER |
Orders results so that $matches[0] is an array of first set of matches, $matches[1] is an array of second set of matches, and so on. This flag is only used with preg_match_all(). | |
PREG_OFFSET_CAPTURE |
See the description of
PREG_SPLIT_OFFSET_CAPTURE.
|
|
PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY |
This flag tells preg_split() to return only non-empty pieces. | |
PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE |
This flag tells preg_split() to capture parenthesized expression in the delimiter pattern as well. | |
PREG_SPLIT_OFFSET_CAPTURE |
If this flag is set, for every occurring match the appendant string offset will also be returned. Note that this changes the return values in an array where every element is an array consisting of the matched string at offset 0 and its string offset within subject at offset 1. This flag is only used for preg_split(). | |
PREG_UNMATCHED_AS_NULL |
This flag tells preg_match() and
preg_match_all() to include unmatched subpatterns in
$matches as NULL values. Without this flag, unmatched
subpatterns are reported as empty strings, as if they were empty matches.
Setting this flag allows to distinguish between these two cases.
