Read Original

This article demonstrates the use of GCC's __cleanup__ variable attribute in C to achieve RAII-like behavior, ensuring resources like memory and file handles are automatically released when variables go out of scope. It provides practical code examples for cleaning up temporary files and freeing memory, highlighting a useful technique for C programmers to prevent resource leaks.
