     34 DESCRIPTION
     35 </b><br>
     36 <P>
     37 This is a convenience function for extracting a list of all the captured
     38 substrings. The arguments are:
     39 <pre>
     40   <i>subject</i>       Subject that has been successfully matched
     41   <i>ovector</i>       Offset vector that <b>pcre[16|32]_exec</b> used
     42   <i>stringcount</i>   Value returned by <b>pcre[16|32]_exec</b>
     43   <i>listptr</i>       Where to put a pointer to the list
     44 </pre>
     45 The memory in which the substrings and the list are placed is obtained by
     46 calling <b>pcre[16|32]_malloc()</b>. The convenience function
     47 <b>pcre[16|32]_free_substring_list()</b> can be used to free it when it is no
     48 longer needed. A pointer to a list of pointers is put in the variable whose
     49 address is in <i>listptr</i>. The list is terminated by a NULL pointer. The
     50 yield of the function is zero on success or PCRE_ERROR_NOMEMORY if sufficient
     51 memory could not be obtained.
