💜 Function Documentation 💜

void g2_free (gribfield * gfld)

Free memory that was allocated for struct gribfield. Main character energy: she takes what the decode routine gave you and lets it go. 🫶

🌈 Parameters

• gfld — pointer to gribfield structure (defined in include file grib2.h) returned from routine g2_getfld(). That's your ticket, your golden retriever, the thing you got handed back and now have to hand back to the void. 🙈

⚠️ Note

This routine must be called to free up memory used by the decode routine, g2_getfld(), when user no longer needs to reference this data.

Not "should", not "maybe", not "if you feel like it" — must. Fr fr, if you skip this one, the memory just sits there. Leak vibes. Not iconic. 😭
