+SYNOPSIS

+<P>
+<b>#include <pcre2.h></b>
+</P>
+<P>
+<b>int pcre2_get_error_message(int <i>errorcode</i>, PCRE2_UCHAR *<i>buffer</i>,</b>
+<b> PCRE2_SIZE <i>bufflen</i>);</b>

+DESCRIPTION
+</b><br>
+<P>
+This function provides a textual error message for each PCRE2 error code.
+Compilation errors are positive numbers; UTF formatting errors and matching
+errors are negative numbers. The arguments are:
+<pre>
+ <i>errorcode</i> an error code (positive or negative)
+ <i>buffer</i> where to put the message
+ <i>bufflen</i> the length of the buffer (code units)
+</pre>
+The function returns the length of the message in code units, excluding the
+trailing zero, or the negative error code PCRE2_ERROR_NOMEMORY if the buffer is
+too small. In this case, the returned message is truncated (but still with a
+trailing zero). If <i>errorcode</i> does not contain a recognized error code
+number, the negative value PCRE2_ERROR_BADDATA is returned.
