vasilito ff4ff35918 feat: track all source trees in git — full fork offline-first model
Red Bear OS is a full fork. All sources must be available from git clone
with zero network access. Removed gitignore rules that excluded fetched
source trees under recipes/*/source/, local/recipes/kde/*/source/,
local/recipes/qt/*/source/, and vendor source trees.

Build artifacts (target/, build/, source.tar, *.o, *.so) remain excluded.

127291 files added — kernel, relibc, base, bootloader, pkgar, all KDE/Qt
frameworks, mesa, wayland, DRM drivers, and every other recipe source.

.TH PCRE2_SUBSTRING_GET_BYNUMBER 3 "13 December 2014" "PCRE2 10.45"
.SH NAME
PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)
.SH SYNOPSIS
.rs
.sp
.B #include <pcre2.h>
.PP
.nf
.B int pcre2_substring_get_bynumber(pcre2_match_data *\fImatch_data\fP,
.B " uint32_t \fInumber\fP, PCRE2_UCHAR **\fIbufferptr\fP, PCRE2_SIZE *\fIbufflen\fP);"
.fi
.
.SH DESCRIPTION
.rs
.sp
This is a convenience function for extracting a captured substring by number
into newly acquired memory. The arguments are:
.sp
\fImatch_data\fP The match data for the match
\fInumber\fP Number of the required substring
\fIbufferptr\fP Where to put the string pointer
\fIbufflen\fP Where to put the string length
.sp
The memory in which the substring is placed is obtained by calling the same
memory allocation function that was used for the match data block. The
convenience function \fBpcre2_substring_free()\fP can be used to free it when
it is no longer needed. The yield of the function is zero for success or one of
the following error numbers:
.sp
PCRE2_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING there are no groups of that number
PCRE2_ERROR_UNAVAILBLE the ovector was too small for that group
PCRE2_ERROR_UNSET the group did not participate in the match
PCRE2_ERROR_NOMEMORY memory could not be obtained
.sp
.P
There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API in the
.\" HREF
\fBpcre2api\fP

page and a description of the POSIX API in the
.\" HREF
\fBpcre2posix\fP

page.
