COMEDI_CLEANUP_CALIB(3)

💖 COMEDI_CLEANUP_CALIBRARY(3) — comedi_cleanup_calibration 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the Comedi reference manual, section 3 — this one's literally the lil cleanup goblin of the calibration world 🧚✨

---

✨ NAME ✨

comedi_cleanup_calibration — free calibration resources 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <comedilib.h>

void comedi_cleanup_calibration(comedi_calibration_t * calibration);

---

🦋 STATUS 🦋

alpha — yeah bestie, it's giving baby software, we move anyway 💅

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

So here's the tea ☕: this function frees the resources that are chillin' inside a comedi_calibration_t — and that struct has to have come from comedi_parse_calibration_file in the first place, no cap.

lowkey the most important part: once you call this function, the comedi_calibration_t pointed to by calibration can NOT be used again. not even a little. not even to peek. it's gone, it's ghosted you, it's literally over 😭

Think of it like this: you got your calibration data, you did your lil thing with it, and now you're releasing it back into the wild. That's the whole plot. Main character energy for a function that just says bye 👑
