#3619 closed Bug (Fixed)
Return value of _WinAPI_LocalFree() is not consistent with what the documentation says

Description
Return Value according to the documentation
Success: True
Failure: False, call _WinAPI_GetLastError() to ...
In WinAPIMem.au3
Func _WinAPI_LocalFree($hMemory) Local $aResult = DllCall("kernel32.dll", "handle", "LocalFree", "handle", $hMemory) If @error Then Return SetError(@error, @extended, False) Return $aResult[0] EndFunc ;==>_WinAPI_LocalFree
If the error is caused by the DllCall(), the documentation is correct.
However, the return value of LocalFree() itself according to MSDN is:
- If the function succeeds, the return value is NULL.
- If the function fails, the return value is equal to a handle to the local memory object. To get extended error information, call GetLastError().
Thus, if LocalFree() returns 0 (which means successful), _WinAPI_LocalFree() returns False (which means failed).
