int ldaclose (ldptr) LDFILE *ldptr;
The ldopen and ldclose functions are designed to provide uniform access to both simple object files and object files that are members of archive files. Thus an archive of common object files can be processed as if it were a series of simple common object files.
If TYPE(ldptr) does not represent an archive file, ldclose closes the file and frees the memory allocated to the LDFILE structure associated with ldptr. If TYPE(ldptr) is the magic number of an archive file, and if there are any more files in the archive, ldclose reinitializes OFFSET(ldptr) to the file address of the next archive member and returns FAILURE. The LDFILE structure is prepared for a subsequent ldopen(S). In all other cases, ldclose returns SUCCESS.
ldaclose closes the file and frees the memory allocated to the LDFILE structure associated with ldptr regardless of the value of TYPE(ldptr). ldaclose always returns SUCCESS. The function is often used in conjunction with ldaopen.
The program must be loaded with the object file access routine library
