of the previous partial match are stored. Here is
an example using <b>pcre2test</b>:
<pre>
    re&#62; /^\d?\d(jan|feb|mar|apr|may|jun|jul|aug|sep|oct|nov|dec)\d\d$/
  data&#62; 23ja\=dfa,ps
  Partial match: 23ja
  data&#62; n05\=dfa,dfa_restart
   0: n05
</pre>
The first call has "23ja" as the subject, and requests partial matching; the
second call has "n05" as the subject for the continued (restarted) match.
Notice that when the match is complete, only the last part is shown; PCRE2 does
not retain the pre
