PCAP_CLOSE(3)          FreeBSD Library Functions Manual          PCAP_CLOSE(3)

NAME

     pcap_close - close a capture device or savefile

SYNOPSIS

     #include <pcap/pcap.h>

     void pcap_close(pcap_t *p);

DESCRIPTION

     pcap_close() closes the files associated with p and deallocates
     resources. This means that, for example, if p refers to a savefile that
     was opened with pcap_fopen_offline() or
     pcap_fopen_offline_with_tstamp_precision(), the stream provided to the
     routine will be closed unless it is stdin.

SEE ALSO

     pcap(3), pcap_open_offline(3)
