Function

GLibslice_free1

since: 2.10

Declaration

void
g_slice_free1 (
  gsize block_size,
  gpointer mem_block
)

Description

Frees a block of memory.

The memory must have been allocated via g_slice_alloc() or g_slice_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][G_DEBUG] environment variable.

If mem_block is NULL, this function does nothing.

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

Available since: 2.10

Parameters

block_size

Type: gsize

The size of the block.

mem_block

Type: gpointer

A pointer to the block to free.

The argument can be NULL.

The data is owned by the caller of the function.
