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.
