BCX COM Interface
SET ... NOTHING procedure
Purpose: SET ... NOTHING
procedure releases all memory resources
allocated by call to CREATEOBJECT
or by BCX_DISPATCHOBJECT
functions.
Note well that NOTHING must be called for each created COM/ActiveX object otherwise memory leaks will occur!
Syntax: SET oBj = NOTHING |
Example:
CLS DIM app AS OBJECT app = CREATEOBJECT("Excel.Application") IF BCX_COM_ERROR THEN PRINT BCX_GET_COM_ERROR_DESC$ END END IF app.visible = true Sleep(2000) ' Excel will be visible for 2 sec, and than it will close. app.activeworkbook.saved = true ' don't prompt to save workbook app.quit SET app = NOTHING ' remember to call Set xxx = Nothing ' to release resources used by COM object!!! KEYPRESS
