💖 gnutls_global_deinit(3) 💖

okay bestie, so this one is a page from the gnutls manual — that's the manual name, iykyk — and it's all about one lil function called gnutls_global_deinit. no cap, that's the whole vibe. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

gnutls_global_deinit — API function 🌸

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

void gnutls_global_deinit( void);

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

  • void — literally nothing. she takes no arguments. iconic, honestly. 🫶

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

so here's the tea. this function deinitializes the global data — the stuff that got initialized earlier by gnutls_global_init(). it's the cleanup era. 🧹✨

Since GnuTLS 3.3.0 this function is no longer necessary to be explicitly called. like, you can, but GnuTLS will automatically deinitialize on library destructor all by itself. main character energy fr fr. 💅

if you're curious about how to turn off that implicit initialization/deinitialization situation, go peek at gnutls_global_init(). that's where the lore lives. 👀
