| SYNOPSIS |
| </b><br> |
| <P> |
| <b>#include <pcre2.h></b> |
| </P> |
| <P> |
| <b>void pcre2_match_data_free(pcre2_match_data *<i>match_data</i>);</b> |
| </P> |
| <br><b> |
| DESCRIPTION |
| </b><br> |
| <P> |
| If <i>match_data</i> is NULL, this function does nothing. Otherwise, |
| <i>match_data</i> must point to a match data block, which this function frees, |
| using the memory freeing function from the general context or compiled pattern |
| with which it was created, or <b>free()</b> if that was not set. If the match |
| data block was previously passed to <b>pcre2_match()</b>, it will have an |
| attached heapframe vector; this is also freed. |
| </P> |
| <P> |
| If the PCRE2_COPY_MATCHED_SUBJECT was used for a successful match using this |
| match data block, the copy of the subject that was referenced within the block |
| is also freed. |
