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

int pcre16_copy_named_substring(const pcre16 *code,
PCRE_SPTR16
subject, int *ovector,
int
stringcount, PCRE_SPTR16 stringname,
PCRE_UCHAR16 *
buffer, int buffersize);

int pcre32_copy_named_substring(const pcre32 *code,
PCRE_SPTR32
subject, int *ovector,
int
stringcount, PCRE_SPTR32 stringname,
PCRE_UCHAR32 *
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[16|32]_exec() used
stringcount
Value returned by pcre[16|32]_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.
