CoFreeLibrary function (objbase.h)
Frees a library that, when loaded, was specified to be freed explicitly.
Note This function is provided for compatibility with 16-bit Windows.
Syntax
void CoFreeLibrary(
[in] HINSTANCE hInst
);
Parameters
[in] hInst
A handle to the library module to be freed, as returned by the CoLoadLibrary function.
Return value
None
Remarks
The CoFreeLibrary function should be called to free a library that is to be freed explicitly. This is established when the library is loaded with the bAutoFree parameter of CoLoadLibrary set to FALSE. It is illegal to free a library explicitly when the corresponding CoLoadLibrary call specifies that it be freed automatically (the bAutoFree parameter is set to TRUE).
