void kite_dereference_object

(

kite_object_t *

obj

)

Dereference object.

Parameters:

obj

The object to dereference.

Note:

This has no effect if Kite was compiled with GC support. However, do not rely on the GC existing in a user's installed version. This is important to ensure that objects are freed appropriately and not leaked.
