Q3Controller_Decommission

You can use the Q3Controller_Decommission function to make a controller inactive.

TQ3Status Q3Controller_Decommission (
TQ3ControllerRef controllerRef);
controllerRef
A reference to a controller.
DESCRIPTION
The Q3Controller_Decommission function makes the controller specified by the controllerRef parameter inactive. Any remaining references to a controller that has been decommissioned are still valid, but the controller is no longer operational. (In other words, when the specified controller is referred to by an application or process other than the one that created it, reasonable default values are returned, not kQ3Failure.) Decommissioning a controller might cause the notify function of the tracker currently associated with the specified controller to be called.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
The Q3Controller_Decommission function should be called only by the application or process that created the specified controller.
