This function frees a library that, when loaded, was specified to be freed explicitly.
void CoFreeLibrary( HINSTANCE hInst );
Parameters
- hInst
- [in] Handle to the library module to be freed, as returned by
CoLoadLibrary.
Return Values
None.
Remarks
The CoFreeLibraryfunction should be called to free a library that is to be freed explicitly. This is established when the library is loaded with the bAutoFreeparameter of CoLoadLibraryset to FALSE. It is illegal to free a library explicitly when the corresponding CoLoadLibrarycall specifies that it be freed automatically (the bAutoFreeparameter is set to TRUE).
For Windows CE versions 2.10 and later, this function is not supported. Applications should call CoFreeUnusedLibrariesinstead.
Passing into this function any invalid and, under some circumstances, NULL pointers results in unexpected termination of the application.
