HeapDestroy function

Applies to: desktop apps only

Destroys the specified heap object. It decommits and releases all the pages of a private heap object, and it invalidates the handle to the heap.

Copy

BOOL WINAPI HeapDestroy(
  __in  HANDLE hHeap
);

hHeap [in]: A handle to the heap to be destroyed. This handle is returned by the HeapCreate function. Do not use the handle to the process heap returned by the GetProcessHeap function.

If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.

If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

Processes can call HeapDestroy without first calling the HeapFree function to free memory allocated from the heap.
