AuKillClient(3)

💅 AuKillClient — bestie edition

okay so this is a page from the Library Functions Manual, and it's called AuKillClient. Sit down, hydrate, we're doing audio server cleanup ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

AuKillClient — destroy a client or its remaining resources 🧹💀

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <audio/audiolib.h>

void AuKillClient(server, resource, status)
    AuServer *server;
    AuID resource;
    AuStatus *status; /* RETURN */

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• server — the connection to the audio server. your little link to the mothership, if you will 🌈
• resource — the resource tied to the client you want destroyed, or the constant AuCloseDownDestroy. it's giving "who are we ending today" 💅
• status — if it's not NULL, the output buffer gets flushed and the status comes back from the server. if it is NULL, no tea is spilled back to you 🙈 (it's marked /* RETURN */ in the synopsis, so it's the one handing you info back)

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so AuKillClient forces a close-down of the client that created resource. no gentle goodbye, no soft launch, just close-down, periodt.

if that client has already terminated — in either AuCloseDownRetainPermanent or AuCloseDownRetainTemporary mode — then all of the client's resources get destroyed. like, the whole closet, gone 🧚✨

and if resource is AuCloseDownDestroy, then the resources of all clients that have terminated in AuCloseDownRetainTemporary are destroyed. yeah. all of them. group cleanup era 🔥
