The first argument to the function gives the current depth of 32 parenthesis nesting, and the second is user data that is supplied when the 33 function is set up. The callout function should return zero if all is well, or 34 non-zero to force an error. This feature is provided so that applications can 35 check the available system stack space, in order to avoid running out. The 36 result of <b>pcre2_set_compile_recursion_guard()</b> is always zero. 37 </P> 38 <P> 39 There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API in the 40 <a href="pcre2api.html"><b>pcre2api</b></a> 41 page and a description of the POSIX API in the 42 <a href="pcre2posix.html"><b>pcre2posix</b></a> 43 page. 44 <p> 45 Return to the <a href="index.html">PCRE2 index page</a>. 46 </p> 47
