regex_free

Syntax

native regex_free(&Regex:id);

Description

Parameters

id The regex handle to free.

Note

This must be called on all results from regex_match() when you are done extracting
the results with regex_substr().

Note

The results of regex_compile() or regex_compile_ex() (and subsequently, regex_match_c())
only need to be freed when you are done using the pattern.

Note

Do not use the handle again after freeing it!

Return
