PHP function Edit on GitHub ✎

(PECL event >= 1.2.6-beta)

Free a buffer event

Description

EventBufferEvent::free(): void

Free resources allocated by buffer event.

Usually there is no need to call this method, since normally it is done within internal object destructors. However, sometimes we have a long-time script allocating lots of instances, or a script with a heavy memory usage, where we need to free resources as soon as possible. In such cases EventBufferEvent::free may be used to protect the script against running up to the memory_limit.

Parameters Parameters

Return Values

Void
