```{index} single: release (Peta::FFI) ``` ```{index} single: Peta::FFI::release ``` # release Destroy a handle's C object now, ahead of its last reference. ## Synopsis ```perl Peta::FFI::release($schema); # schema_free runs here ``` ## What you get back True when the object was destroyed; false when `$handle` is no handle or was released already. A released handle stays an object of its class, and passing it to C croaks.
