A Provider DLL implements this function. The Location Framework calls this export when it no longer needs report that this Provider can generate.
Syntax
DWORD ProviderStop(void)
Parameters
There are no parameters.
Return Value
The Location Framework ignores the return value of ProviderStop().
Remarks
The Location Framework will call this function when it no longer requires reports the Provider can generate. This function should signal to the thread performing ProviderGetLocation that it must shutdown immediately and return to the calling Location Framework.
Providers must NOT block in this call or else they will cause the Location Framework to block on other applications or even potentially deadlock.
