| .TH PCRE2_SUBSTRING_LIST_GET 3 "21 October 2014" "PCRE2 10.00"
 | |
| .SH NAME
 | |
| PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)
 | |
| .SH SYNOPSIS
 | |
| .rs
 | |
| .sp
 | |
| .B #include <pcre2.h>
 | |
| .PP
 | |
| .nf
 | |
| .B int pcre2_substring_list_get(pcre2_match_data *\fImatch_data\fP,
 | |
| .B "  PCRE2_UCHAR ***\fIlistptr\fP, PCRE2_SIZE **\fIlengthsptr\fP);
 | |
| .fi
 | |
| .
 | |
| .SH DESCRIPTION
 | |
| .rs
 | |
| .sp
 | |
| This is a convenience function for extracting all the captured substrings after
 | |
| a pattern match. It builds a list of pointers to the strings, and (optionally)
 | |
| a second list that contains their lengths (in code units), excluding a
 | |
| terminating zero that is added to each of them. All this is done in a single
 | |
| block of memory that is obtained using the same memory allocation function that
 | |
| was used to get the match data block. The convenience function
 | |
| \fBpcre2_substring_list_free()\fP can be used to free it when it is no longer
 | |
| needed. The arguments are:
 | |
| .sp
 | |
|   \fImatch_data\fP    The match data block
 | |
|   \fIlistptr\fP       Where to put a pointer to the list
 | |
|   \fIlengthsptr\fP    Where to put a pointer to the lengths, or NULL
 | |
| .sp
 | |
| A pointer to a list of pointers is put in the variable whose address is in
 | |
| \fIlistptr\fP. The list is terminated by a NULL pointer. If \fIlengthsptr\fP is
 | |
| not NULL, a matching list of lengths is created, and its address is placed in
 | |
| \fIlengthsptr\fP. The yield of the function is zero on success or
 | |
| PCRE2_ERROR_NOMEMORY if sufficient memory could not be obtained.
