Free a word expansion buffer
Synopsis:
#include <wordexp.h>
void wordfree( wordexp_t * pwordexp );
Library:
libc
Use the -l c option to
qcc
to link against this library.
This library is usually included automatically.
Note:
This function is in libc.a, but not in libc.so
(in order to save space).
Description:
The wordfree() frees the memory allocated by
wordexp().
Note:
Because of security concerns, the versions of wordexp() and wordfree()
in libc.a are stubs that do nothing, and libc.so doesn't include them at all.
We recommend that you not use these functions.
