24 curl_formfree - free a previously build multipart/formdata HTTP POST chain
26 .B #include <curl/curl.h>
28 .BI "void curl_formfree(struct curl_httppost *" form);
31 curl_formfree() is used to clean up data previously built/appended with
32 \fIcurl_formadd(3)\fP. This must be called when the data has been used, which
33 typically means after \fIcurl_easy_perform(3)\fP has been called.
35 The pointer to free is the same pointer you passed to the
36 \fBCURLOPT_HTTPPOST\fP option, which is the \fIfirstitem\fP pointer from the
37 \fIcurl_formadd(3)\fP invoke(s).
39 \fBform\fP is the pointer as returned from a previous call to
40 \fIcurl_formadd(3)\fP and may be NULL.
