Subject: Extending Regular Expression bounds limit of 255.
Date: Thu, 27 May 2010 13:33:07 -0600
Message-ID: <AANLkTinSlZ_53lw9hAzQTd4bSFlR1_jmzgpbvTSYc3oi@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

In the docs
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/functions-matching.html#POSIX-EMBEDDED-OPTIONS-TABLE
it says that Regular Expression bounds {m,n} that m and n can be 0-255.  Is
there a way to extend the upper limit.  We are trying to be consistent
between Regular Expressionimplementation an the other implementations do not
have this limit.
