NAME

       PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)

SYNOPSIS


       #include <pcre2.h>

       int pcre2_substring_list_get(pcre2_match_data *match_data,
         PCRE2_UCHAR ***listptr, PCRE2_SIZE **lengthsptr);

DESCRIPTION


       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 pcre2_substring_list_free() can be used to free it when it is no  longer  needed.
       The arguments are:

         match_data    The match data block
         listptr       Where to put a pointer to the list
         lengthsptr    Where to put a pointer to the lengths, or NULL

       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. If lengthsptr  is  not  NULL,  a  matching  list  of
       lengths  is created, and its address is placed in lengthsptr. The yield of the function is
       zero on success or PCRE2_ERROR_NOMEMORY if sufficient memory could not be obtained.

       There is a complete description of the PCRE2  native  API  in  the  pcre2api  page  and  a
       description of the POSIX API in the pcre2posix page.
