LZClose

The LZClose function closes a file that was opened by using the LZOpenFile function.

VOID LZClose(
  INT hFile   // LZ file handle identifying file to be closed
);
 

Parameters

hFile

Handle to the source file to be closed.

Return Values

This function does not return a value.

Remarks

The handle identifying the file must be retrieved by calling the LZOpenFile function. If the handle is retrieved by calling the CreateFile or OpenFile function, an error occurs.

If the file is compressed by using the Microsoft File Compression Utility (COMPRESS.EXE) and opened by using LZOpenFile, LZClose frees any global heap space that was allocated to expand the file.
