💖 gnutls_deinit — the manual page, but make it cute 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the gnutls manual, section 3 🎀 this is the part where we learn how to say a proper goodbye to a session. sit down, hydrate, let's go ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

gnutls_deinit — it's an API function, periodt 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

void gnutls_deinit(gnutls_session_t session);

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • gnutls_session_t session — bestie it is a gnutls_session_t type. that's the whole vibe of it. it's literally a gnutls_session_t. 🫶

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so here's the tea 🍓 — this function clears all the buffers associated with the session. like, everything it was holding onto? gone. wiped. clean slate energy. ✨

and that's not even the whole story 👀 this function will also remove the session data from the session database if the session was terminated abnormally. so if things went sideways, gnutls_deinit is the one who quietly cleans up the mess and makes sure there's no leftover session data haunting the database. not all heroes wear capes, some of them return void. 💀

😭 REPORTING BUGS 😭
