Remarks

The LINE_CLOSE message is only sent to any application after an open line has been forcibly closed. This can be done to prevent a single application from monopolizing a line device for too long. Whether or not the line can be reopened immediately after a forced close is device-specific.

A line device can also be forcibly closed after the user has modified the configuration of that line or its driver. If the user wants the configuration changes to be effective immediately, as opposed to after the next system restart, and the changes affect the application's current view of the device, such as a change in device capabilities, then a service provider can forcibly close the line device.

Requirements

OS Versions: Windows CE 1.0 and later.
