ReleaseDC( hWnd, hDC )-> <lSuccess>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PARAMETER:
<hWnd> Is the handle that identifies the window whose DC is
to be released.
<hDC> Identifies the device context to be released.
RETURNS:
<lSuccess> is TRUE if the function is successful
DESCRIPTION:
The ReleaseDC function releases the given device context, freeing it for
use by other applications. The application must call ReleaseDC for each
call to GetDC().
The effect of ReleaseDC() depends on the type of device context. It frees
only common and window device contexts. It has no effect on class or
private device contexts.
