Allow the option of a PCRE regex

[Bryan Harris]

Hello,

I noticed that monit supports extended regex but not PCRE. Can a PCRE search be added to monit in the future?

Thanks in advance.

V/r, Bryan

Hello Bryan,

thank you for suggestion, unfortunately implementing this will rise monit complexity and make it depend on another (PCRE) library. The existing support for POSIX regex should allow to create patterns that match the target content.
