This convenience function finds the number of a named substring capturing parenthesis in a compiled pattern. Its arguments are:
code Compiled regular expression name Name whose number is required
The yield of the function is the number of the parenthesis
if the name is found, or PCRE_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING otherwise.
When duplicate names are allowed (PCRE_DUPNAMES is set), it
is not defined which of the numbers is returned by
pcre[16|32]_get_stringnumber().
You can obtain the complete list by calling pcre[16|32]_get_stringtable_entries().
There is a complete description of the PCRE native API in the pcreapi(3) page and a description of the POSIX API in the pcreposix(3) page.
