Thread: free() and structures

Hello,

I've searched the internet and these fora for help on this topic, without success: Suppose I have a structure, as follows:

Code:

typedef struct{
double *vector;
int beta;
}wrapper;

I initialize a pointer to an instance of wrapper, as follows:

Code:

wrapper * initWrapper ()
{
thisWrapper = (wrapper*)malloc(sizeof(wrapper));
thisWrapper->vector = (double*)malloc(10*sizeof(double));
thisWrapper->beta = 0;
return(thisWrapper);
}

int main()
{

wrapper *myWrapper = initWrapper();
int returnFlag = 0;
if (wrapper !=NULL)
returnFlag = 0;
else
returnFlag = -1;
return(returnFlag);
}

Now, if I add this line towards the end of main()

Code:

free (myWrapper);

does the pointer myWrapper->vector also get freed, or do I have to write a function to go in and free it?

Thanks,
Dev

Thanks, for both the answer and the suggesion!
