_onexit, _onexit_m

Registers a routine to be called at exit time.

_onexit_t _onexit(
   _onexit_t function
);
_onexit_t_m _onexit_m(
   _onexit_t_m function
);

Parameters

  • function
    Pointer to a function to be called at exit.

Return Value

_onexit returns a pointer to the function if successful or NULL if there is no space to store the function pointer.

Remarks

The _onexit function is passed the address of a function (function) to be called when the program terminates normally. Successive calls to _onexit create a register of functions that are executed in LIFO (last-in-first-out) order. The functions passed to _onexit cannot take parameters.

In the case when _onexit is called from within a DLL, routines registered with _onexit run on a DLL's unloading after DllMain is called with DLL_PROCESS_DETACH.

_onexit is a Microsoft extension. For ANSI portability, use atexit. The _onexit_m version of the function is for mixed mode use.
