.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.rs
|
|
.sp
|
|
This is a convenience function for extracting a captured substring into a given
|
|
buffer. The arguments are:
|
|
.sp
|
|
\fIsubject\fP Subject that has been successfully matched
|
|
\fIovector\fP Offset vector that \fBpcre_exec()\fP used
|
|
\fIstringcount\fP Value returned by \fBpcre_exec()\fP
|
|
\fIstringnumber\fP Number of the required substring
|
|
\fIbuffer\fP Buffer to receive the string
|
|
\fIbuffersize\fP Size of buffer
|
|
.sp
|
|
The yield is the length of the string, PCRE_ERROR_NOMEMORY if the buffer was
|
|
too small, or PCRE_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING if the string number is invalid.
