tibems_Open

Function

Purpose

Allocate the global memory for the EMS library.

C Declaration

void tibems_Open(void);

COBOL Call

CALL "tibems_Open"
  RETURNING tibems-Return-Value
END-CALL.

Remarks

Applications that do not call tibems_Open will work as expected because the EMS internal global data structures are allocated when any public EMS function is called. However, the EMS data structures will not be deallocated until the application calls the tibems_Close function or exits.

Existing Windows applications that only call the tibems_Close function will work as expected.

Applications that call tibems_Open and tibems_Close one or more times will allocate and deallocate correctly as long as the close calls match the open calls.
