NAME

       nng_free - free memory

SYNOPSIS

           #include <nng/nng.h>

           void nng_free(void *ptr, size_t size);

DESCRIPTION

       The nng_free() function deallocates a memory region of size size, that was previously
       allocated by nng_alloc() or nng_recv() with the NNG_FLAG_ALLOC flag.

           Important
           It is very important that size match the allocation size used to allocate the memory.

           Important
           Do not attempt to use this function to deallocate memory obtained by a call to the
           system malloc() or calloc() functions, or the C++ new operator. Doing so may result in
           unpredictable behavior, including corruption of application memory.

RETURN VALUES

       None.

ERRORS

       None.
