(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)
xml_parser_free — Free an XML parser
Description
Note:
This function has no effect. Prior to PHP 8.0.0, this function was used to close the resource.
Frees the given XML parser
.
In addition to calling xml_parser_free() when the parsing
is finished, prior to PHP 8.0.0, it was necessary to also explicitly unset the
reference to parser
to avoid memory leaks,
if the parser resource is referenced from an object, and this object references
that parser resource.
Parameters
-
parser
- A reference to the XML parser to free.
Return Values
Returns true
on success or false
on failure.
