This is a convenience function for extracting a captured substring, identified
|
|
|
|
|
by name, into a given buffer. The arguments are:
|
|
|
|
|
.sp
|
|
|
|
|
\fImatch_data\fP The match data block for the match
|
|
|
|
|
\fIname\fP Name of the required substring
|
|
|
|
|
\fIbuffer\fP Buffer to receive the string
|
|
|
|
|
\fIbufflen\fP Length of buffer (code units)
|
|
|
|
|
.sp
|
|
|
|
|
The \fIbufflen\fP variable is updated to contain the length of the extracted
|
|
|
|
|
string, excluding the trailing zero. The yield of the function is zero for
|

|
|
|
success or one of the following error numbers:
|
|
|
|
|
.sp
|
|
|
|
|
PCRE2_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING there are no groups of that name
|
|
|
|
|
PCRE2_ERROR_UNAVAILBLE the ovector was too small for that group
|
|
|
|
|
PCRE2_ERROR_UNSET the group did not participate in the match
|
|
|
|
|
PCRE2_ERROR_NOMEMORY the buffer is not big enough
|
|
|
|
|
.sp
|
|
|
|
|
If there is more than one group with the given name, the first one that is set
|
|
|
|
|
is returned. In this situation PCRE2_ERROR_UNSET means that no group with the
|
|
|
|
|
given name was set.
