NAME curl_mime_free - free a previously built mime structure
SYNOPSIS #include <curl/curl.h>
void curl_mime_free(curl_mime *mime);
DESCRIPTION curl_mime_free(3) is used to clean up data previously built/appended with curl_mime_addpart(3) and other mime-handling functions. This must be called when the data has been used, which typically means after curl_easy_perform(3) has been called.
The handle to free is the one you passed to the CURLOPT_MIMEPOST(3) option: attached sub part mime structures must not be explicitly freed as they are by the top structure freeing.
mime is the handle as returned from a previous call to curl_mime_init(3) and may be NULL.
Passing in a NULL pointer in mime makes this function return immediately with no action.
EXAMPLE int main(void) { CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); if(curl) { /* Build the mime message. */ curl_mime *mime = curl_mime_init(curl);
/* send off the transfer */
/* Free multipart message. */ curl_mime_free(mime); } }
AVAILABILITY As long as at least one of HTTP, SMTP or IMAP is enabled. Added in 7.56.0.
RETURN VALUE None
