Function
elf_end ();
is used to release the resources associated with an ELF descriptor
pointed to by argument
elf
This descriptor must have been allocated by a previous call to
elf_begin3
or
elf_memory3.
For programming convenience, a NULL value is permitted for argument
elf
A call to
elf_end ();
decrements the activation count for descriptor
elf
by one.
The resources associated with the descriptor are only released
with its activation count goes to zero.
Once function
elf_end ();
returns zero, the ELF descriptor
elf
will no longer be valid and should not be used further.
RETURN VALUES
Function
elf_end ();
returns the current value of the ELF descriptor
elf Ap s
activation count, or zero if argument
elf
was NULL.
