Removes a FNIDLE based idle routine from the MAPI system.

Header file:

Mapiutil.h

Implemented by:

MAPI

Called by:

Client applications and service providers

VOID DeregisterIdleRoutine(
  FTG ftg
);

Parameters

  • ftg
    [in] Function tag that identifies the idle routine to be removed.

Return Value

None.

Remarks

Any task in a client application or service provider can deregister any idle routine for which it has a valid ftg parameter. In particular, an idle routine can deregister itself.

The following functions deal with the MAPI idle engine and with idle routines based on the FNIDLE function prototype:

Idle routine function

Usage

   ChangeIdleRoutine   

Changes the characteristics of a registered idle routine.

   DeregisterIdleRoutine   

Removes a registered idle routine from the MAPI system.

   EnableIdleRoutine   

Disables or re-enables a registered idle routine without removing it from the MAPI system.

   FtgRegisterIdleRoutine   

Adds an idle routine to the MAPI system, with or without enabling it.

   MAPIDeInitIdle   

Shuts down the MAPI idle engine for the calling application.

   MAPIInitIdle   

Initializes the MAPI idle engine for the calling application.

   ChangeIdleRoutine, DeregisterIdleRoutine, and EnableIdleRoutine take as an input parameter the function tag returned by FtgRegisterIdleRoutine.

When all foreground tasks for the platform become idle, the MAPI idle engine calls the highest priority idle routine that is ready to execute. There is no guarantee of calling order among idle routines of the same priority.

After the idle routine is deregistered, the idle engine does not call it again. Any implementation that calls DeregisterIdleRoutine must deallocate any memory blocks to which it passed pointers for the idle engine to use in its original call to the FtgRegisterIdleRoutine function.
