+<P>
+<b>int pcre2_substring_nametable_scan(const pcre2_code *<i>code</i>,</b>
+<b> PCRE2_SPTR <i>name</i>, PCRE2_SPTR *<i>first</i>, PCRE2_SPTR *<i>last</i>);</b>

+DESCRIPTION
+</b><br>
+<P>
+This convenience function finds, for a compiled pattern, the first and last
+entries for a given name in the table that translates capturing parenthesis
+names into numbers.
+<pre>
+ <i>code</i> Compiled regular expression
+ <i>name</i> Name whose entries required
+ <i>first</i> Where to return a pointer to the first entry
+ <i>last</i> Where to return a pointer to the last entry
+</pre>
+When the name is found in the table, if <i>first</i> is NULL, the function
+returns a group number, but if there is more than one matching entry, it is not
+defined which one. Otherwise, when both pointers have been set, the yield of
+the function is the length of each entry in code units. If the name is not
+found, PCRE2_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING is returned.
+</P>

+There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API, including the format of
+the table entries, in the

+page, and a description of the POSIX API in the
+<a href="pcre2posix.html"><b>pcre2posix</b></a>
+page.
