IMalloc::Free

Frees a previously allocated block of memory.

void Free(

void * pv	//Pointer to the memory block to be freed
);

Parameter

pv

[in] Pointer to the memory block to be freed.

Remarks

IMalloc:Free frees a block of memory previously allocated through a call to IMalloc::Alloc or IMalloc::Realloc. The number of bytes freed equals the number of bytes that were allocated. After the call, the memory block pointed to by pv is invalid and can no longer be used.

Note The pv parameter can be NULL. If so, this method has no effect.
