This is a convenience function for extracting a captured substring, identified by name, into a given buffer. The arguments are:
code Pattern that was successfully matched subject Subject that has been successfully matched ovector Offset vector thatpcre[16]_exec() used stringcount Value returned bypcre[16]_exec() stringname Name of the required substring buffer Buffer to receive the string buffersize Size of buffer
The yield is the length of the substring, PCRE_ERROR_NOMEMORY if the buffer was too small, or PCRE_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING if the string name is invalid.
There is a complete description of the PCRE native API in the pcreapi(3) page and a description of the POSIX API in the pcreposix(3) page.
