cs_destroy

cs_destroy(3)							      cs/cs.h							     cs_destroy(3)

NAME

       cs_destroy  - clean up and dealloc a parse tree

SYNOPSIS

       #include <cs/cs.h>

       void cs_destroy (CSPARSE **parse);

ARGUMENTS

       parse - a pointer to a parse structure.

DESCRIPTION

       cs_destroy  will  clean	up all the memory associated with a CSPARSE structure, including strings passed to cs_parse_string.  This does not
       clean up any memory allocated by your own CSOUTFUNC or the HDF data structure passed to cs_init.  It is safe  to  call  this  with  a  NULL
       pointer, and it will leave parse NULL as well (ie, it can be called more than once on the same var)

RETURN VALUE

       parse - will be NULL
