NAME

sec_attr_util_free — Frees nonnull pointers in a sec_attr_t with an input deallocate routine

Synopsis

void  sec_attr_util_free(
void (∗deallocate) (void ∗ptr),
sec_attr_t ∗attr);

Parameters

Input/Output

(∗deallocate)(void ∗ptr)
A caller-specified memory deallocate routine.  If set to NULL, the default free() is used. 

∗attrAs input, a pointer to a sec_attr_t for which memory should be deallocated.  As output, a pointer to the sec_attr_t with subfields, if any, deallocated and set to NULL. 

Description

The sec_attr_util_free() routine uses the input deallocate routine to free memory allocated to a sec_attr_t by sec_attr_util_alloc_copy().  With an input value of NULL for deallocate, the sec_attr_util_free routine behaves identically to sec_attr_util_inst_free_ptrs.
