Red Bear OS is a full fork. All sources must be available from git clone with zero network access. Removed gitignore rules that excluded fetched source trees under recipes/*/source/, local/recipes/kde/*/source/, local/recipes/qt/*/source/, and vendor source trees. Build artifacts (target/, build/, source.tar, *.o, *.so) remain excluded. 127291 files added — kernel, relibc, base, bootloader, pkgar, all KDE/Qt frameworks, mesa, wayland, DRM drivers, and every other recipe source.

|
|
These functions are used to simplify analysis of memory leaks in the
|
|
<EM>ncurses</EM> library.
|
|
|
|
Any implementation of curses must not free the memory associated with a
|
|
screen, since (even after calling <STRONG><A HREF="curs_initscr.3x.html">endwin(3x)</A></STRONG>), it must be available for
|
|
use in the next call to <STRONG><A HREF="curs_refresh.3x.html">refresh(3x)</A></STRONG>. There are also chunks of memory
|
|
held for performance reasons. That makes it hard to analyze curses
|
|
applications for memory leaks. When using the specially configured
|
|
debugging version of the <EM>ncurses</EM> library, applications can call
|
|
functions which free those chunks of memory, simplifying the process of
|
|
memory-leak checking.
|
|
|
|
Some of the functions are named with a "_nc_" prefix because they are
|
|
not intended for use in the non-debugging library:
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>_nc_freeall</STRONG>
|
|
This frees (almost) all of the memory allocated by <EM>ncurses</EM>.
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>_nc_free_and_exit</STRONG>
|
|
This frees the memory allocated by <EM>ncurses</EM> (like <STRONG>_nc_freeall</STRONG>), and
|
|
exits the program. It is preferred over <STRONG>_nc_freeall</STRONG> since some of
|
|
that memory may be required to keep the application running.
|
|
Simply exiting (with the given exit-code) is safer.
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>_nc_free_tinfo</STRONG>
|
|
Use this function if only the low-level terminfo functions (and
|
|
corresponding library) are used. Like <STRONG>_nc_free_and_exit</STRONG>, it exits
|
|
the program after freeing memory.
|
|
|
|
The functions prefixed "_nc" are normally not available; they must be
|
|
configured into the library at build time using the <STRONG>--disable-leaks</STRONG>
|
|
option. That compiles-in code that frees memory that normally would
|
|
not be freed.
|
|
|
|
The <STRONG>exit_curses</STRONG> and <STRONG>exit_terminfo</STRONG> functions call <STRONG>_nc_free_and_exit</STRONG> and
|
|
<STRONG>_nc_free_tinfo</STRONG> if the library is configured to support memory-leak
|
|
checking. If the library is not configured to support memory-leak
|
|
checking, they simply call <STRONG>exit</STRONG>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
</PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
|
|
These functions do not return a value.
|
|
|
|
|
|
</PRE><H2><a name="h2-PORTABILITY">PORTABILITY</a></H2><PRE>
|
|
These functions are not part of X/Open Curses; nor do other
|
|
implementations of curses provide a similar feature.
|
|
|
|
In any implementation of X/Open Curses, an application can free part of
|
|
the memory allocated by curses:
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> The portable part of <STRONG>exit_curses</STRONG> can be freed using <STRONG>delscreen</STRONG>,
|
|
passing the <EM>SCREEN</EM> pointer returned by <STRONG>newterm</STRONG>.
|
|
|
|
In some implementations, there is a global variable <STRONG>sp</STRONG> which could
|
|
be used, e.g., if the screen were only initialized using <STRONG>initscr</STRONG>.
|
|
|
|
<STRONG>o</STRONG> The portable part of <STRONG>exit_terminfo</STRONG> can be freed using <STRONG>del_curterm</STRONG>.
|
|
|
|
In this case, there is a global variable <STRONG>cur_term</STRONG> which can be used
|
|
as parameter.
