Description

This manual connection member function closes a previously opened distributor event.  The last sharing consumer to close a given distributor event will cause it to automatically close the distributor's providing event (which will in turn close all of their retrieved events and so on).  Before using this member function, we would recommend familiarity with Manual Connections and Distributors.

Prototype

Uns Close( void );

Parameters

None

Return Value

This function returns logical TRUE if the connection is successfully closed; or FALSE otherwise.

Notes

Connections cannot be re-opened until they have been successfully closed.  Attempting to close a connection that was not successfully opened will generate a diagnostic.

Executing a close can unblock an adjacent requester that is blocked due to reentrancy considerations (see Object Reentrancy).
