23 This is a convenience function for extracting a list of all the captured
24 substrings. The arguments are:
26 \fIsubject\fP Subject that has been successfully matched
27 \fIovector\fP Offset vector that \fBpcre[16|32]_exec\fP used
28 \fIstringcount\fP Value returned by \fBpcre[16|32]_exec\fP
29 \fIlistptr\fP Where to put a pointer to the list
31 The memory in which the substrings and the list are placed is obtained by
32 calling \fBpcre[16|32]_malloc()\fP. The convenience function
33 \fBpcre[16|32]_free_substring_list()\fP can be used to free it when it is no
34 longer needed. A pointer to a list of pointers is put in the variable whose
35 address is in \fIlistptr\fP. The list is terminated by a NULL pointer. The
36 yield of the function is zero on success or PCRE_ERROR_NOMEMORY if sufficient
37 memory could not be obtained.
