mysql_server_end(3)

💖 mysql_server_end — the little goodbye function

okay so bestie, you've been out here living your best life with MariaDB Connector/C, and now it's time to log off. this is the page for mysql_server_end(3), the function you call when you're done using the library. it's giving graceful exit, it's giving closure, it's giving 🎀.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <mysql.h>

void mysql_server_end(void)

that's it. no args, no return value, no drama. she's simple and she's iconic 💅.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Call this when you're finished using the library — like, for real finished. The classic move is to call it after you've disconnected from the server, once everything's wrapped up and you're packing your bags 🧳.

And if you're a client program? Then all this function does is clean up by doing memory management tasks. That's the whole vibe. She's not out here closing sockets or nuking connections — she's just tidying up the RAM so you don't leak all over the place. very demure, very mindful 🫶.

📝 NOTES 📝

• mysql_library_end() is an alias for mysql_server_end(). same function, different name, both slay ✨.
• heads up tho 👑: in MySQL Connector/C versions 3.0.1 to 3.0.4, it was not possible to call mysql_server_init(3) and mysql_server_end() multiple times. like, at all. so if you're on those versions, don't try to be cute and loop it — that era did not support the re-run 😭.

and that's the whole page, bestie — no cap, every single detail is right there 💜. this was Version 3.4 of the MariaDB Connector/C manual, mysql_server_end(3), and yes she ate and left no crumbs 🍓💅. go forth and free your memory responsibly, mwah 😘
