DosExit - Parameters

action (ULONG) - input

Ends the process and all of its threads.

The values of this field are as follows:

• EXIT_THREAD
  The current thread ends.

• EXIT_PROCESS
  All threads in the process end.

result (ULONG) - input

Program's completion code.

It is passed to any thread that issues DosWaitChild for this process.

Note: Although result is a 32-bit parameter, the current release only permits the low 16 bits to be used. This means result must be <= 0xFFFF and implies that returning a 32-bit value (including NULL) is not possible.

Return Code.

DosExit returns no values.
