The ! 31: arguments are: ! 32: <pre> ! 33: <i>subject</i> Subject that has been successfully matched ! 34: <i>ovector</i> Offset vector that <b>pcre_exec()</b> used ! 35: <i>stringcount</i> Value returned by <b>pcre_exec()</b> ! 36: <i>stringnumber</i> Number of the required substring ! 37: <i>stringptr</i> Where to put the string pointer ! 38: </pre> ! 39: The memory in which the substring is placed is obtained by calling ! 40: <b>pcre_malloc()</b>. The convenience function <b>pcre_free_substring()</b> can ! 41: be used to free it when it is no longer needed. The yield of the function is ! 42: the length of the substring, PCRE_ERROR_NOMEMORY if sufficient memory could not ! 43: be obtained, or PCRE_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING if the string number is invalid. ! 44: </P> ! 45: <P> ! 46: There is a complete description of the PCRE native API in the ! 47: <a href="pcreapi.html"><b>pcreapi</b></a> ! 48: page and a description of the POSIX API in the ! 49: <a href="pcreposix.html"><b>pcreposix</b></a> ! 50: page. ! 51: <p> ! 52: Return to the <a href="index.html">PCRE index page</a>. ! 53: </p>
