26DESCRIPTION
27</b><br>
28<P>
29This function sets, in a compile context, the maximum size (in bytes) for the
30memory needed to hold the compiled version of a pattern that is compiled with
31this context. The result is always zero. If a pattern that is passed to
32<b>pcre2_compile()</b> with this context needs more memory, an error is
33generated. The default is the largest number that a PCRE2_SIZE variable can
34hold, which is effectively unlimited.
