NAME

       idn_free - API function

SYNOPSIS

       #include <idn.h>

       void idn_free(void * ptr);

ARGUMENTS

       void * ptr  memory region to deallocate, or NULL.

DESCRIPTION

       Deallocates memory region by calling free().  If  ptr is NULL no operation is performed.

       Normally applications de-allocate strings allocated by libidn by calling free() directly.  Under Windows,
       different  parts  of  the  same  application  may  use different heap memory, and then it is important to
       deallocate memory allocated within the same module that allocated it.  This function makes that possible.
