DS_DiscardObjHandle

HRESULT DS_DiscardObjHandle (DSHandle DSHandle);

Purpose

Discards a DataSocket object and frees the resources used by it.

When you call this function on a DataSocket object handle that you obtained from DS_Open, all of that DataSocket object's attribute objects are also disconnected from the DataSocket data source. You cannot get or set the data value or attributes of a DataSocket object that is disconnected from its DataSocket data source. You must still call DS_DiscardObjHandle on disconnected DataSocket objects.

Parameters

Input
Name Type Description
DSHandle DSHandle Pass the handle you obtained from DS_Open, DS_GetAttrHandle, or DS_CreateAttrHandle to identify the DataSocket object.

Return Value

status HRESULT The value that indicates whether an error occurred. A negative error code indicates function failure.
