Description
This manual connection member function closes a previously opened splitter event. Closing a splitter will cause it to automatically close its providing event (which will in turn close all of their retrieved events and so on). When all of the splitter's links have closed a given event, then the collector that provided the event can itself be closed (which will then close all of its retrieved events). Before using this member function, we would recommend familiarity with Manual Connections and Splitters.
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).
