2.3.2 Linear algebra object destruction

  Linear algebra objects are destroyed, freeing the allocated space, by a call to


figure2484

figure2486

figure2489


Upon return, obj has been reset to NULL.
Note: In the next chapter, we describe how to create a number of references (views) into a linear algebra object. PLAPACK keeps track of all these references, and the data itself continues to be available until the last reference is destroyed.
