PANDA_FREEOBJECT(3)                                        PANDA_FREEOBJECT(3)


NAME

       panda_freeobject - free the memory used by a previously created object


SYNOPSIS

        #include<panda/constants.h>
        #include<panda/functions.h>
        void panda_freeobject (panda_pdf *output, panda_object *);


DESCRIPTION

       <command>PANDA INTERNAL</command>. This function call frees the memory
       used by an object. It is used during the cleanup process prior to
       finishing closing a PDF document. Even if a user of the API has added
       object types to their code, they should not have to call this function,
       as their objects should be added to the object tree via
       <command>panda_addchild</command>() to ensure they are written to disc
       by <command>panda_writeobject</command>() having been traversed by
       <command>panda_traverseobjects</command>() at PDF close time.


RETURNS

       None


EXAMPLE

        #include<panda/constants.h>
        #include<panda/functions.h>
        panda_pdf *document;
        panda_object *obj;
        panda_init();
        document = panda_open("filename.pdf", "w");
        obj = panda_newobject(document, panda_object_normal);
        panda_freeobject(document, obj)l
