m_free_static

m_free_static_block

This call frees up a block of static RAM previously allocated by the m_get_static_block call.


Syntax:         int m_free_static_block(_far * static_ptr) 
Parameters:     _far *static_ptr - The System Manager uses the address pointed 
                                   to by this parameter to get the 32-bit buffer start
                                   address.  The pointer is not modified, although its 
                                   use after the call has been made is not advisable.  
                                   The buffer pointed to is freed and combined with 
                                   other free blocks adjacent to it.  If possible, 
                                   excess free static RAM will be returned to general 
                                   use. 
Returns:        0 - if static memory block is successfully freed
                Any other value indicates an error condition.  Error code is stored in
                AX.
