rmw_ret_t rmw_topic_endpoint_info_array_fini(rmw_topic_endpoint_info_array_t *topic_endpoint_info_array, rcutils_allocator_t *allocator)

Finalize an array of topic endpoint information.

Thread-safety

Finalization is a reentrant procedure, but:

  • Access to the array of topic endpoint information is not synchronized. It is not safe to read or write topic_endpoint_info_array during finalization.

  • The default allocators are thread-safe objects, but any custom allocator may not be. Check your allocator documentation for further reference.

Parameters:
  • topic_endpoint_info_array[inout] object to be finalized.

  • allocator[in] Allocator used to populate the given topic_endpoint_info_array.

Pre:

Given allocator must be the same used to initialize the given topic_endpoint_info_array.

Returns:

RMW_RET_OK if successful, or

Returns:

RMW_RET_INVALID_ARGUMENT if topic_endpoint_info_array is NULL, or

Returns:

RMW_RET_INVALID_ARGUMENT if allocator is invalid, by rcutils_allocator_is_valid() definition, or

Returns:

RMW_RET_ERROR when an unspecified error occurs.
