P.FREE - release memory occupied by a compiled pattern.

Usage:

p.free(pcode);

Where:

pcode
is the handle for the compiled pattern code returned by P.COMPILE.

Description:

P.FREE releases the memory used to hold a successfully compiled pattern. If P.COMPILE failed when you tried to compile the pattern, no memory was allocated for the compiled pattern, so you should not call P.FREE.

See Also:

expl b lib p.compile
for information on compiling patterns.
