NAME

rpc_binding_free - Releases binding handle resources

Used by client or server applications. 

SYNOPSIS

#include <dce/rpc.h>
void rpc_binding_free(

rpc_binding_handle_t ∗binding ,
unsigned32 ∗status );

PARAMETERS

Input/Output

bindingSpecifies the server binding handle to free. 

Output

statusReturns the status code from this routine.  This status code indicates whether the routine completed successfully or, if not, why not.  The possible status codes and their meanings are as follows:

rpc_s_okSuccess. 

rpc_s_invalid_bindingInvalid binding handle. 

rpc_s_wrong_kind_of_binding
Wrong kind of binding for operation.

DESCRIPTION

The rpc_binding_free routine frees the memory used by a server binding handle and its referenced binding information. Use this routine when your application is finished using a server binding handle that was dynamically created during program execution. 

If the free-binding operation succeeds, the binding argument returns the value NULL. 

An application can dynamically create binding handles by calling any of the following routines:

       •rpc_binding_copy

       •rpc_binding_from_string_binding

       •rpc_ns_binding_import_next

       •rpc_ns_binding_select

       •rpc_server_inq_bindings

RETURN VALUES

None.
