reclaim_objects

NAME​

reclaim_objects - reclaim any lingering objets

SYNOPSIS​

int reclaim_objects( void );

DESCRIPTION​

Cycles through all objects that are loaded, and frees any lingering
objects that it can. This could result in a sizable amount of memory
being freed up, depending on how the mud is coded. Objects are typi‐
cally left lingering when a global variable in more than one object
contains a pointer to it, and the object gets destructed. This efun
returns the number of destructed objects encountered in variables.
