CLRELEASEPROGRAM(3clc)

💖 CLRELEASEPROGRAM 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the OpenCL Manual, page for clReleaseProgram — it's a 3clc situation and it's lowkey iconic 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

clReleaseProgram — decrements the program reference count. that's it, that's the whole job, and she does it flawlessly 🦋

cl_int clReleaseProgram(cl_program program);

---

🫶 NOTES 🫶

okay so here's the tea, and it's important tea: the program object gets deleted only after all the kernel objects associated with program have been deleted and the program reference count becomes zero</> 💀

so like. both things. not one, both. no cap.

---

😭 ERRORS 😭

she returns CL_SUCCESS if the function is executed successfully (slay ✨). otherwise, bestie, she returns one of these:

• CL_INVALID_PROGRAM — if program is not a valid program object 🙈
• CL_OUT_OF_RESOURCES — if there is a failure to allocate resources required by the OpenCL implementation on the device
• CL_OUT_OF_HOST_MEMORY — if there is a failure to allocate resources required by the OpenCL implementation on the host
