NAME CloseWorkBench -- Closes the Workbench screen. SYNOPSIS Success = CloseWorkBench() D0 LONG CloseWorkBench( VOID ); FUNCTION This routine attempts to close the Workbench screen: - Test whether or not any applications have opened windows on the Workbench, and return FALSE if so. Otherwise ... - Clean up all special buffers - Close the Workbench screen - Make the Workbench program mostly inactive (it will still monitor disk activity) - Return TRUE INPUTS None RESULT TRUE if the Workbench screen closed successfully FALSE if the Workbench was not open, or if it has windows open which are not Workbench drawers. NOTES This routine has been drastically rewritten for V36. It is much more solid, although we haven't eliminated all the problem cases yet. BUGS The name of this function is improperly spelled. It ought to have been CloseWorkbench(). It might be more convenient to have it return TRUE if the Workbench wasn't opened when called. The idea as it is now is probably this: if you want to free up the memory of the Workbench screen when your program begins, you can call CloseWorkBench(). The return value of that call indicates whether you should call openworkbench() when your program exits: if FALSE, that means either the the Workbench existed but you could not close it, or that it wasn't around to begin with, and you should not try to re-open it. We would prefer that you provide a user selection to attempt to open or close the Workbench screen from within your application, rather than your making assumptions like these.
