free

Description:

[ CCode ( cname = "g_slice_free1" ) ]
public void free (size_t block_size, void* mem_block)

Frees a block of memory.

The memory must have been allocated via alloc or alloc0 and the block_size has to match the size specified upon allocation. Note that the exact release behaviour can be changed with the `G_DEBUG=gc-friendly` environment variable.

If mem_block is null, this function does nothing.

Since GLib 2.76 this always uses the system free_sized implementation internally.

Parameters:

block_size	the size of the block
mem_block	a pointer to the block to free
