NAME

6       remctl_close - Close a remctl connection and free the client object
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <remctl.h>
10
11       void remctl_close(struct remctl *r);
12

DESCRIPTION

14       remctl_close() cleanly closes any connection to a remote server created
15       via remctl_open() for the given client object and then frees the object
16       created by remctl_new().  It should be called when the caller is fin‐
17       ished with a remctl client object to avoid resource leaks.  Following
18       the call to remctl_close(), the r pointer to the remctl client object
19       is no longer valid.
20
21       remctl_close() is always successful, even if it is unable to send a
22       clean protocol quit command to the remote server.
