timeEndPeriod

  • Article

The timeEndPeriod function clears a previously set minimum timer resolution.

MMRESULT timeEndPeriod(
  UINT uPeriod  
);

Parameters

uPeriod

Minimum timer resolution specified in the previous call to the timeBeginPeriod function.

Return Values

Returns TIMERR_NOERROR if successful or TIMERR_NOCANDO if the resolution specified in uPeriod is out of range.

You must match each call to timeBeginPeriod with a call to timeEndPeriod, specifying the same minimum resolution in both calls. An application can make multiple timeBeginPeriod calls as long as each call is matched with a call to timeEndPeriod.
