WIDM_CLOSE

This message is sent to a waveform input device driver to deallocate a specified device.

Parameters

DWORD dwParam1

Unused.

DWORD dwParam2

Unused.

Return Value

The return value is an error code, or zero (MMSYSERR_NOERROR) if the operation is successful. Possible error codes are:

MMSYSERR_NOTENABLED

The driver failed to load or initialize.

WAVERR_STILLPLAYING

There are still buffers in the queue.

Comments

If there are input buffers that haven't been returned to the application, the driver should fail the close operation by returning a WAVERR_STILLPLAYING error. If the close operation is successful, the driver should use the DriverCallback function to send the client a WIM_CLOSE message.
