✨ aa_close(3) ✨

okay bestie, so we're in the aa_close page of the Library Functions Manual and honestly? this one is short and sweet and it's giving closure πŸ’…


🌸 NAME 🌸

aa_close β€” close the AA-lib context, no cap 🫢


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

#include <aalib.h>

void aa_close(aa_context *c);

πŸŽ€ PARAMETERS πŸŽ€

  • aa_context *c β€” bestie, this is the AA-lib context you wanna operate on. like, which one. point at it. that's the one getting closed. ✨

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

So what this actually does: it uninitializes all the activated drivers and frees the memory that the context structures were using. that's it. that's the whole function. it's the "okay bye, thanks for coming, we're done here" of AA-lib 😭

think of it as the main character exit. everything you turned on with the init functions, this turns off, and all that memory gets released back to the universe. iconic. periodt. πŸ‘‘
