PCRE_GET_S...LE_ENTRIES(3)  Library Functions Manual  PCRE_GET_S...LE_ENTRIES(3)

NAME
     PCRE - Perl-compatible regular expressions

SYNOPSIS
     #include <pcre.h>

     int pcre_get_stringtable_entries(const pcre *code,
	  const char *name, char **first, char **last);

     int pcre16_get_stringtable_entries(const pcre16 *code,
	  PCRE_SPTR16 name, PCRE_UCHAR16 **first, PCRE_UCHAR16 **last);

     int pcre32_get_stringtable_entries(const pcre32 *code,
	  PCRE_SPTR32 name, PCRE_UCHAR32 **first, PCRE_UCHAR32 **last);

DESCRIPTION
     This convenience function finds, for a compiled pattern, the first and last
     entries for a given name in the table that translates capturing parenthesis
     names  into numbers. When names are required to be unique (PCRE_DUPNAMES is
     not set), it is usually easier to	use  pcre[16|32]_get_stringnumber()  in-
     stead.

       code    Compiled regular expression
       name    Name whose entries required
       first   Where to return a pointer to the first entry
       last    Where to return a pointer to the last entry

     The yield of the function is the length of each entry, or PCRE_ERROR_NOSUB-
     STRING if none are found.

     There  is a complete description of the PCRE native API, including the for-
     mat of the table entries, in the pcreapi page, and  a  description  of  the
     POSIX API in the pcreposix page.
