Package libre2-devel-static: Information

RE2 is a fast, safe, thread-friendly alternative to backtracking
regular expression engines like those used in PCRE, Perl, and
Python. It is a C++ library.  Backtracking engines are typically full
of features and convenient syntactic sugar but can be forced into
taking exponential amounts of time on even small inputs. RE2 uses
automata theory to guarantee that regular expression searches run in
time linear in the size of the input. RE2 implements memory limits, so
that searches can be constrained to a fixed amount of memory. RE2 is
engineered to use a small fixed C++ stack footprint no matter what
inputs or regular expressions it must process; thus RE2 is useful in
multithreaded environments where thread stacks cannot grow arbitrarily
large.
