.SH NAME
PCRE - Perl-compatible regular expressions
.SH SYNOPSIS
.rs

.B #include <pcre.h>
.PP
.SM
.br
.B int pcre_get_named_substring(const pcre *\fIcode\fR,
.ti +5n
.B const char *\fIsubject\fR, int *\fIovector\fR,
.ti +5n
.B int \fIstringcount\fR, const char *\fIstringname\fR,
.ti +5n
.B const char **\fIstringptr\fR);
.SH DESCRIPTION
.rs
.sp
This is a convenience function for extracting a captured substring by name. The
arguments are:
\fIcode\fR Compiled pattern
\fIsubject\fR Subject that has been successfully matched
\fIovector\fR Offset vector that \fBpcre_exec()\fR used
\fIstringcount\fR Value returned by \fBpcre_exec()\fR
\fIstringname\fR Name of the required substring
\fIstringptr\fR Where to put the string pointer
The yield is the length of the extracted substring, PCRE_ERROR_NOMEMORY if
sufficient memory could not be obtained, or PCRE_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING if the
string name is invalid.
There is a complete description of the PCRE API in the
.\" HREF
