This is a convenience function for extracting a captured substring by name. The |
| 32 |
|
|
arguments are: |
| 33 |
|
|
<pre> |
| 34 |
|
|
<i>code</i> Compiled pattern |
| 35 |
|
|
<i>subject</i> Subject that has been successfully matched |
| 36 |
|
|
<i>ovector</i> Offset vector that <b>pcre_exec()</b> used |
| 37 |
|
|
<i>stringcount</i> Value returned by <b>pcre_exec()</b> |
| 38 |
|
|
<i>stringname</i> Name of the required substring |
| 39 |
|
|
<i>stringptr</i> Where to put the string pointer |
| 40 |

</pre> |
| 41 |
|
|
The memory in which the substring is placed is obtained by calling |
| 42 |
nigel |
93 |
<b>pcre_malloc()</b>. The convenience function <b>pcre_free_substring()</b> can |
| 43 |
|
|
be used to free it when it is no longer needed. The yield of the function is |
| 44 |
|
|
the length of the extracted substring, PCRE_ERROR_NOMEMORY if sufficient memory |
| 45 |
|
|
could not be obtained, or PCRE_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING if the string name is invalid. |
