al_destroy_config(3alleg5)
π al_destroy_config β the Allegro 5 API glow-down π
okay so bestie, you're in the Allegro 5 API reference manual and this page is all about al_destroy_config, and ngl it's a short one but it's IMPORTANT, so let's get into it β¨
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
like, here's the whole vibe in code:
#include <allegro5/allegro.h>
void al_destroy_config(ALLEGRO_CONFIG *config)
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
so al_destroy_config does exactly what it says on the tin, no cap: it frees all the resources that a configuration structure was hogging. you know, the whole ALLEGRO_CONFIG situation. it's the clean-up era. the goodbye era. the "you served your purpose, king" era π
and here's the cute part β if you pass it NULL, it literally just does nothing. no crash, no drama, no screaming into the void. it's giving β¨unbotheredβ¨. so you don't have to sit there doing a vibe check on your pointer before calling it, because it's already got you π«Ά
fr fr though, free your configs when you're done with them. memory leaks are NOT the aesthetic, bestie π
π SEE ALSO π
the rest of the config cinematic universe, obviously:
and that's the whole page, periodt π it's from the Allegro reference manual, and yeah β it's literally titled al_destroy_config(3alleg5), same name in the corner, same name at the bottom, the whole symmetrical slay π
go free your configs, bestie, i'm obsessed ππ¦
