NAME¶
ares_destroy - Destroy a resolver channel
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <ares.h>
void ares_destroy(ares_channel channel)
DESCRIPTION¶
The
ares_destroy(3) function destroys the name service channel identified
by
channel, freeing all memory and closing all sockets used by the
channel.
ares_destroy(3) invokes the callbacks for each pending query on the
channel, passing a status of IARES_EDESTRUCTION
. These calls give the
callbacks a chance to clean up any state which might have been stored in
their arguments. A callback must not add new requests to a channel
being destroyed.
