ARES_DESTROY(3) Library Functions Manual ARES_DESTROY(3)
NAME
ares_destroy - Destroy a resolver channel
SYNOPSIS
#include <ares.h>
void ares_destroy(ares_channel channel)
DESCRIPTION
The ares_destroy function destroys the name service channel identified by channel, freeing all memory and closing all sockets used by the
channel. ares_destroy invokes the callbacks for each pending query on the channel, passing a status of ARES_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.
