NAME

       lc_ctx_new, lc_ctx_free - create and free Librecast contexts

SYNOPSIS

       void lc_ctx_free(lc_ctx_t *ctx);

DESCRIPTION

       lc_ctx_new()  creates  a  new  Librecast  context  and  sets  up  the  environment.   Call
       lc_ctx_free(3) when done.

       lc_ctx_free() invalidates and frees a Librecast context created with lc_ctx_new(3)

RETURN VALUE

       lc_ctx_new() returns a pointer to a lc_ctx_t handle.  On error returns NULL and sets errno
       to ENOMEM.

       The lc_ctx_free() function returns no value.

ERRORS

       lc_ctx_new() can fail with the following error:

       ENOMEM Out  of  memory.   Possibly, the application hit the RLIMIT_AS or RLIMIT_DATA limit
              described in getrlimit(2).
