Free

Releases the map's memory.

Module: Std::HashMap

Signature

func Free(self);

Description

Frees the map's backing buffer and resets it to an empty, uninitialized state (null data, zero count and capacity). Call it when you're finished with the map to avoid leaking its storage.

WARNING

Free releases only the map's own buffer, not whatever its value pointers refer to. Free any owned values first (for example by iterating Values). After Free, the map must be re-initialized with Init before reuse.

Example

import Std::HashMap::*;

var map: HashMap;
Init(&map);
// ... use map ...
map.Free();
