al_destroy_menu(3alleg5)

💅 al_destroy_menu — Allegro 5 API ✨

okay bestie, so this page is al_destroy_menu from the Allegro 5 manual (that's the 3alleg5 situation if you were wondering) and honestly? it's a short one, but it's a powerful one. let's get into it 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro5/allegro_native_dialog.h>

void al_destroy_menu(ALLEGRO_MENU *menu)

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so what does it do?? it destroys an entire menu, and like… including its sub-menus. the whole tree, gone, one call, no cap 💀🌳

and here's the part where you gotta pay attention, bestie:

Any references to it or a sub-menu are no longer valid. like, not "kinda stale", not "probably fine", just invalid. do not touch them. do not look at them. do not pass them to anything. they're ghosts now 👻

the good news though?? the actual iconic part?? it is safe to call this on a menu that is currently being displayed. yes fr fr 💖 you can yeet a menu while it's literally on screen and that is completely fine. slay.
