IEEE1284_FREE_PORTS(3)             Functions            IEEE1284_FREE_PORTS(3)

NAME
       ieee1284_free_ports - safely deallocate a port list

SYNOPSIS
       #include <ieee1284.h>

       void ieee1284_free_ports(struct parport_list *list);

DESCRIPTION
       When the port list will no longer be used, the program should call
       ieee1284_free_ports giving it a pointer to the parport_list structure
       that holds the list of ports returned by ieee1284_find_ports(3). The
       ports are reference counted with the ieee1284_open and ieee1284_close
       functions, and so the port list may be freed even if it contains
       pointers to ports that are still open.
