Release

ReleaseMethod

Releases an Item defined with Define or other related function

Syntax

Release()

Remarks

When a function, operator, variable, or other item is defined with such functions as Define, DefineFunction, DefineOperator, DefineVariable, these items remain in memory, until they are released with this function. Items should generally be released when they are no longer needed, in order to preserve memory.

Note: A uCalc Item object must explicitely be released with Release unless the entire uCalc object it is a part of is is released. An Item object will not be released automatically when it simply goes out of scope.

Example 1: Displaying a different result for each value of x based on the expression parsed with Parse

VB
C#
Delphi
C++
VC++.NET

Dim x As double
for x = 1 To 10
   VariableX.SetVariableValue(x)
   Console.WriteLine("x = " + x + "  Result = " + ParsedExpr.Evaluate())
