AHELP for CIAO 3.4 xpaclose Context: xpa

Synopsis

Close a persistent XPA connection created by XPAOpen().

Syntax

XPAClose( XPA_Type xpaHdl )

Description

This function closes the persistent XPA connection created by XPAOpen() and clears up any allocated resources. In general this function need not be used since it will automatically be called when the variable storing the XPA handle goes out of scope. It can be useful if you need to clear up the connection/resources earlier than this.
