| .SH NAME |
| curl_formfree - free a previously build multipart/formdata HTTP POST chain |
| .SH SYNOPSIS |
| .B #include <curl/curl.h> |
| .sp |
| .BI "void curl_formfree(struct curl_httppost *" form); |
| .ad |
| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| This function is deprecated. Do not use! See \fIcurl_mime_init(3)\fP instead! |
| |
| curl_formfree() is used to clean up data previously built/appended with |
| \fIcurl_formadd(3)\fP. This must be called when the data has been used, which |
| typically means after \fIcurl_easy_perform(3)\fP has been called. |
| |
| The pointer to free is the same pointer you passed to the |
| \fICURLOPT_HTTPPOST(3)\fP option, which is the \fIfirstitem\fP pointer from |
| the \fIcurl_formadd(3)\fP invoke(s). |
| |
| \fBform\fP is the pointer as returned from a previous call to |
| \fIcurl_formadd(3)\fP and may be NULL. |
| |
| Passing in a NULL pointer in \fIform\fP will make this function return |
| immediately with no action. |
| .SH AVAILABILITY |
| Deprecated in 7.56.0. |
| .SH RETURN VALUE |
| None |
| .SH "SEE ALSO" |
| .BR curl_formadd "(3), " curl_mime_init "(3), " curl_mime_free "(3)" |
