NAME
       PCRE - Perl-compatible regular expressions

SYNOPSIS

       #include <pcre.h>

       int pcre_get_substring_list(const char *subject,
	    int *ovector, int stringcount, const char ***listptr);

DESCRIPTION

       This  is	 a convenience function for extracting a list of all the cap-
       tured substrings. The arguments are:

	 subject       Subject that has been successfully matched
	 ovector       Offset vector that pcre_exec used
	 stringcount   Value returned by pcre_exec
	 listptr       Where to put a pointer to the list

       The memory in which the substrings and the list are placed is obtained
       by  calling  pcre_malloc().  The	 convenience  function pcre_free_sub-
       string_list() can be used to free it when it is no  longer  needed.  A
       pointer	to a list of pointers is put in the variable whose address is
       in listptr. The list is terminated by a NULL pointer. The yield of the
       function	 is zero on success or PCRE_ERROR_NOMEMORY if sufficient mem-
       ory could not be obtained.

       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.
