SYNOPSIS
</b><br>
<P>
<b>#include &#60;pcre2.h&#62;</b>
</P>
<P>
<b>void pcre2_code_free(pcre2_code *<i>code</i>);</b>
</P>
<br><b>
DESCRIPTION
</b><br>
<P>
If <i>code</i> is NULL, this function does nothing. Otherwise, <i>code</i> must
point to a compiled pattern. This function frees its memory, including any
memory used by the JIT compiler. If the compiled pattern was created by a call
to <b>pcre2_code_copy_with_tables()</b>, the memory for the character tables is
also freed.
</P>
<P>
