function: lx

function: lx_zfree()

USAGE:

void lx_zfree(lx_s *s)

Zero the memory area used by s. Then free s and set s->s back to 0 by way of lx_free().

Note that not all allocated memory is necessarily zeroed; just that which is currently in use.

PROPERTIES
return value	void
allocation ensured	n/a
previous allocation required	yes (error checks)

SEE ALSO:

func_lx_free -- free a string structure, set string back to 0
func_lx_alloc -- allocate a string struct not yet used

EXAMPLE:


{
	lx_s ns = {0};

	lx_strset (&ns, "some sensitive information.");
	ns.s[ns.len-1] = 0; /* replace '.' with '\0' */
	lx_strout (4, &ns); /* write to imaginary pipe on fd 4 */
	lx_zfree (&ns);
}
