The g_regex_match function creates match_info even if it
returns FALSE. So we should always call g_match_info_free.

What about using g_autoptr instead?

Hi All,

For freeing GMatchInfo struct, a special function is required. I'm not sure is
it possible to use g_autoptr in this case or no.
In GLib example
https://developer.gnome.org/glib/stable/glib-Perl-compatible-regular-expressions.html#g-regex-match,
g_match_info_free is used directly.

Best wishes,
Kostiantyn Kostiuk

That is fine - g_autoptr calls the required deallocation function
that was previously registered. This is different from g_autofree
which merely calls g_free.

We can see GMatchInfo is configured to call g_match_info_free:

$ grep GMatchIn /usr/include/glib-2.0/glib/*.h
/usr/include/glib-2.0/glib/glib-autocleanups.h:G_DEFINE_AUTOPTR_CLEANUP_FUNC(GMatchInfo, g_match_info_unref)


Regards,
Daniel
