Manually -> explicitly? The meaning of "manually" is "by hand and not by 
machine". Software is always executed by a CPU (machine) so nothing 
happens manually in software.

I see duplicated code in error paths. Please move the code for freeing 
resources past the "return 0" statement and use goto statements to jump 
to that code in case of an error.

Thanks,
