I'm using PCRE (the C-library) to extract base64 encoded attachments from emails. Needless to say, such attachments can get pretty big. I've been getting segfaults, so I have been playing with the match_limit (as far as I can tell, it's not a stacksize problem). However, according to the pcreapi man page, the default match_limit is 10million - where as I'm having to keep it at 15000 or thereabouts. I'm right now trying to find the optimal level. Can anyone explain why I would have to set it so low?
I'm not 100% certain yet, but this looks like it might have been due to a back-level PCRE library. The production was 6.2, my development system 6.7, but I've now staticly linked in version 7.2 and the problem has yet to reappear. /Per Jessen, Zürich --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-programming+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-programming+help@opensuse.org
