Does anybody know if I should explicitly FreeProcInstance(...) all of the thunks that I made with MakeProcInstance(...) when my application terminates? That is, does Windows know to clean up, or will thunks accumulate? Thanks in advance. ken. -- Ken Anderson, kea@kasoft.UUCP, 416-274-6244 (fax:416-891-2715) ---

YOU MUST. I REPEAT FOR THE CAPS LOCK IMPAIRED, MUST RELEASE ALL PROC INSTANCES WHEN THE APPLICATION TERMINATES, OR THE SYSTEM RESOURCES WILL BE THAT MUCH SMALLER. PROC INSTANCES WILL NEVER BE "CLEANED UP" BY WINDOWS. >That is, does Windows know to clean up, or will thunks accumulate? Read overly obtrusive statement above. >Thanks in advance. >ken.
