FREELOCALE(3)						   BSD Library Functions Manual 					     FREELOCALE(3)

NAME
     freelocale -- Frees a locale created with duplocale(3) or newlocale(3)

LIBRARY
     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <xlocale.h>

     int
     freelocale(locale_t locale);

DESCRIPTION
     Frees a locale_t.	This relinquishes any resources held exclusively by this locale.  Note that locales share reference-counted components, so
     a call to this function is not guaranteed to free all of the components.

RETURN VALUES
     Returns 0 on success or -1 on error.

SEE ALSO
     duplocale(3), localeconv(3), newlocale(3), querylocale(3), uselocale(3), xlocale(3)

STANDARDS
     The freelocale() function differs from IEEE Std 1003.1-2008 (``POSIX.1'') in that its return type is int rather than void.
