PCRE_COPY_NAMED_SUBSTRING(3)				     Library Functions Manual				      PCRE_COPY_NAMED_SUBSTRING(3)

NAME

       PCRE - Perl-compatible regular expressions

SYNOPSIS


       #include <pcre.h>

       int pcre_copy_named_substring(const pcre *code,
	    const char *subject, int *ovector,
	    int stringcount, const char *stringname,
	    char *buffer, int buffersize);

DESCRIPTION


       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 that pcre_exec() used
	 stringcount   Value returned by pcre_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 page and a description of the POSIX API in the pcreposix page.
