std::experi...ce::release(3)

📦 version 2024.07.05, in nixpkgs unstable, opensuse-leap 16.0

okay so bestie, we're deep in the C++ Standard Libary manual (yes, that's literally how it's spelled, no cap) and this little page is all about std::experi...ce::release(3). it's giving niche but lowkey essential, iykyk 💅 let's get into it.

✨ NAME ✨

this page is literally about std::experimental::pmr::monotonic_buffer_resource::release — and also std::experimental::pmr::monotonic_buffer_resource::release. yes, it's listed twice, and honestly? iconic of it. 🎀

📜 Synopsis 📜

void release();  (library fundamentals TS)

so this function, release(), is like the ultimate cleanup era. it releases all allocated memory by calling the deallocate function on the upstream memory resource as necessary. no cap, it's that simple. 🧹✨

and here's the kicker: memory is released back to the upstream resource even if deallocate has not been called for some of the allocated blocks. so it's like, it doesn't matter if some blocks haven't been deallocated yet — they still get released. the way that works is highkey iconic. 🔥
