PCRE2_COMP...NTEXT_FREE(3)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so this page is PCRE2_COMP...NTEXT_FREE(3) from the Library Functions Manual, and the name vibe is:

PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API). 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <pcre2.h>

void pcre2_compile_context_free(pcre2_compile_context *ccontext);

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

bestie, this one is lowkey simple: pcre2_compile_context_free() frees the memory occupied by a compile context. It uses the memory freeing function from the general context with which it was created, or free() if that was not set. ✨

If the argument is NULL, the function returns immediately without doing anything — no drama, no cleanup, just instant exit. 💅

There is a complete description of the PCRE2 native API in the pcre2api page, and a description of the POSIX API in the pcre2posix page. 📚

and that’s the whole vibe! this page is from PCRE2 10.47, dated 28 June 2018 — mwah, periodt. 💖🎀🦋
