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.

PROTOCOLS

       This functionality affects http, imap and smtp

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);
         }
       }
