NAME¶

nng_free - free memory

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <nng/nng.h>
void nng_free(void *ptr, size_t size);

DESCRIPTION¶

The nng_free() function deallocates a memory region of size size, that was previously allocated by nng_alloc() or nng_recv() with the NNG_FLAG_ALLOC flag.

Important

It is very important that size match the allocation size
used to allocate the memory.

Important

Do not attempt to use this function to deallocate memory
obtained by a call to the system malloc() or calloc() functions, or the C++ new operator. Doing so may result in unpredictable behavior, including corruption of application memory.

RETURN VALUES¶

None.
