DESCRIPTION
</b><br>
<P>
This is a convenience function for extracting a captured substring, identified
by name, into a given buffer. The arguments are:
<pre>
<i>code</i> Pattern that was successfully matched
<i>subject</i> Subject that has been successfully matched
<i>ovector</i> Offset vector that <b>pcre[16|32]_exec()</b> used
<i>stringcount</i> Value returned by <b>pcre[16|32]_exec()</b>
<i>stringname</i> Name of the required substring
<i>buffer</i> Buffer to receive the string
<i>buffersize</i> Size of buffer
</pre>
The yield is the length of the substring, PCRE_ERROR_NOMEMORY if the buffer was
too small, or PCRE_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING if the string name is invalid.
