Library Functions Manual ✨ flow elements ✨

okay bestie sit down, we're doing memory management and honestly? it's giving self-care. this is the page for AuFreeElements, a lil function in the audiolib β€” aka the Network Audio System C Language Interface πŸŽ€


✨ Name ✨

AuFreeElements β€” free the memory used by lists of flow elements 🧚

like, it's the cleanup crew. the designated driver. the friend who makes sure everybody gets home safe. 🫢


🌸 Synopsis 🌸

#include <audio/audiolib.h>

void AuFreeElements(server, num_elements, elements)
    AuServer *server;
    int num_elements;
    AuElement *elements;

no cap, that's the whole signature. three args, one void, zero drama. πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ Arguments πŸ¦‹

  • server β€” the connection to the audio server, bestie. your lil link to the sound world. πŸ”Œ
  • num_elements β€” how many elements you wanna free. the count. the number. the quantity. ✨
  • elements β€” a list of elements, and specifically the kind that came back from AuGetElements. don't be out here passing random stuff, iykyk. πŸ‘‘

πŸ’œ Description πŸ’œ

AuFreeElements frees the memory that AuGetElements allocated. that's it. that's the whole job. it's the "okay we're done here, release the RAM" moment and honestly it's iconic. πŸ”₯

⚠️ heads up bestie: this is the partner function to AuGetElements. when you ask for elements, you get memory. when you're done with them, you call this. the way that forgetting to free is literally a memory leak... 😭 not cute.
