NAME
       libssh2_channel_free - free all resources associated with a channel

SYNOPSIS
       #include <libssh2.h>

       int libssh2_channel_free(LIBSSH2_CHANNEL *channel);


DESCRIPTION
       channel - Channel stream to free.

       Release  all resources associated with a channel stream. If the channel
       has not yet been closed with  libssh2_channel_close(3)  ,  it  will  be
       called automatically so that the remote end may know that it can safely
       free its own resources.


RETURN VALUE
       Return  0  on  success  or  negative  on  failure.   It  returns   LIB-
       SSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN   when   it   would   otherwise   block.  While  LIB-
       SSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN is a negative number, it isn't really a  failure  per
       se.
