Description
This attribute is a flag that indicates that the search pattern is not required to find the participant. This is useful for

For example, consider the following simple recordset string:
<%
var Recordset1 = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset");
Recordset1.ActiveConnection = "dsn=andescoffee;";
Recordset1.Source = "SELECT * FROM PressReleases";
Recordset1.CursorType = 3;
Recordset1.Open();
%>
The search patterns must identify the participant and extract several parameters. However, if a parameter such as
is not found, you should still recognize this pattern as a recordset. The

In the EDML, the search patterns might look like the following example:
<searchPattern paramNames="rs">/var (\w+) = Server.CreateObject/
</searchPattern>
<searchPattern paramNames="src">/ActiveConnection = "([^\r\n]*)"/</searchPattern>
<searchPattern paramNames="conn">/Source = "([^\r\n]*)"/</searchPattern>
<searchPattern paramNames="cursor" isOptional="true">/CursorType = (\d+)/
</searchPattern>
The first three patterns are required to identify the recordset. If the last parameter is not found, the recordset is still
identified.
