DESCRIPTION
This is a convenience function for extracting a captured substring into a given buffer. The arguments are:
subject
Subject that has been successfully matched
ovector
Offset vector that
pcre[16|32]_exec()
used
stringcount
Value returned by
pcre[16|32]_exec()
stringnumber
Number of the required substring
buffer
Buffer to receive the string
buffersize
Size of buffer
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.
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.
