Figure 47–7. scratchDispose (GENERIC)
| PROCEDURE scratchDispose (MODIFIES REPEATABLE ADDRESS a); PROCEDURE scratchDispose (MODIFIES REPEATABLE CHARADR c); |
scratchDispose is used to dispose of scratch space obtained with newScratch (the ADDRESS form) or $newScratchChars (the CHARADR form). The argument a or c is set to Zero. The result is undefined if the storage at a or c was not obtained by a call to newScratch or $newScratchChars, respectively.
MAINSAIL automatically keeps track of the size of scratch space allocations.
