## Function Documentation

## ◆ xmlCleanupMemory()

void xmlCleanupMemory | ( | void |  | ) |

Deprecated:
  This function is a no-op. Call xmlCleanupParser to free global state but see the warnings there. xmlCleanupParser should be only called once at program exit. In most cases, you don't have call cleanup functions at all.

## ◆ xmlGcMemGet()

| ) |  |

Provides the memory access functions set currently in use The mallocAtomicFunc is specialized for atomic block allocations (i.e.

of areas useful for garbage collected memory allocators

Deprecated:
  Use xmlMemGet.

Parameters

  freeFunc | place to save the free() function in use
  mallocFunc | place to save the malloc() function in use
  mallocAtomicFunc | place to save the atomic malloc() function in use

Returns
  0 on success

## ◆ xmlGcMemSetup()

Override the default memory access functions with a new set This has to be called before any other libxml routines ! The mallocAtomicFunc is specialized for atomic block allocations (i.e.

of areas useful for garbage collected memory allocators

  Use xmlMemSetup.

Should this be blocked if there was already some allocations done ?
