p4CloseSystem()

Drop Kernel Manager Resources

Connection/Disconnection Calls

Introduction

The P4API p4CloseSystem() is used to terminate a connection to a Kernel Manager, which was initiated via p4SystemLogon().

BOOL p4CloseSystem (
SYSTEM_HANDLE_T systemHandle
);

Parameters

systemHandle

[in] The system-session-id for a Kernel Manager session, as returned by a prior call to p4SystemLogon().

Return Values

If no error occurs, p4CloseSystem() returns TRUE. Otherwise, it returns a value of FALSE, and a specific error code can be retrieved by calling p4GetLastError().

Remarks

p4CloseSystem() must be used to release system resources held by Kernel Managers. This call does a set of implicit p4ClosePro4() calls for any p4OpenPro4() calls made against the systemHandle. However, it is strongly recommended to do explicit p4ClosePro4() calls in a timely fashion and not rely on p4CloseSystem() to do this housekeeping function.
