                     30: This is a convenience function for extracting a captured substring. 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.
