NAME

       t_free() - free a library structure

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       The  function frees memory previously allocated by This function will free memory for the specified structure and will also free memory for
       buffers referenced by the structure.

       The argument ptr points to one of the seven structure types described for struct_type identifies the type of that structure which  must	be
       one of the following:

	      T_BIND	 struct     t_bind
	      T_CALL	 struct     t_call
	      T_OPTMGMT  struct     t_optmgmt
	      T_DIS	 struct     t_discon
	      T_UNITDATA struct     t_unitdata
	      T_UDERROR  struct     t_uderr
	      T_INFO	 struct     t_info

       where each of these structures is used as an argument to one or more transport functions.

       will  check the addr, opt, and udata fields of the given structure (as appropriate) and free the buffers pointed to by the buf field of the
       structure.  If buf is a null pointer, will not attempt to free memory.  After all buffers are freed, will free the memory  associated  with
       the structure pointed to by ptr.

       Undefined results will occur if ptr or any of the buf pointers points to a block of memory that was not previously allocated by

   Valid States
       All - apart from T_UNINIT

   Fork Safety
       is not fork-safe.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, a value of 0 is returned.  Otherwise, a value of -1 is returned, and is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS

       On failure, is set to the following:

       [TSYSERR]	   A system error has occurred during execution of this function.

       [TNOSTRUCTYPE]	   Unsupported struct_type requested.

       [TPROTO] 	   (XTI  only)	This error indicates that a communication problem has been detected between XTI and the transport provider
			   for which there is no suitable XTI (
