-.TH PCRE 3
-.SH NAME
-PCRE - Perl-compatible regular expressions
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.rs
-.sp
-.B #include <pcre.h>
-.PP
-.SM
-.br
-.B int pcre_get_substring(const char *\fIsubject\fP, int *\fIovector\fP,
-.ti +5n
-.B int \fIstringcount\fP, int \fIstringnumber\fP,
-.ti +5n
-.B const char **\fIstringptr\fP);
-.
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.rs
-.sp
-This is a convenience function for extracting a captured substring. The
-arguments are:
-.sp
- \fIsubject\fP Subject that has been successfully matched
- \fIovector\fP Offset vector that \fBpcre_exec()\fP used
- \fIstringcount\fP Value returned by \fBpcre_exec()\fP
- \fIstringnumber\fP Number of the required substring
- \fIstringptr\fP Where to put the string pointer
-.sp
-The memory in which the substring is placed is obtained by calling
-\fBpcre_malloc()\fP. The yield of the function is the length of the substring,
-PCRE_ERROR_NOMEMORY if sufficient memory could not be obtained, or
-PCRE_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING if the string number is invalid.
-.P
-There is a complete description of the PCRE native API in the
-.\" HREF

-page and a description of the POSIX API in the
-.\" HREF
-\fBpcreposix\fP
