DESCRIPTION

<P>
 | 
						|
This convenience function finds the number of a named substring capturing
 | 
						|
parenthesis in a compiled pattern. Its arguments are:
 | 
						|
<pre>
 | 
						|
  <i>code</i>    Compiled regular expression
 | 
						|
  <i>name</i>    Name whose number is required
 | 
						|
</pre>
 | 
						|
The yield of the function is the number of the parenthesis if the name is
 | 
						|
found, or PCRE_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING otherwise. When duplicate names are allowed
 | 
						|
(PCRE_DUPNAMES is set), it is not defined which of the numbers is returned by
 | 
						|
<b>pcre_get_stringnumber()</b>. You can obtain the complete list by calling
 | 
						|
<b>pcre_get_stringtable_entries()</b>.
