The application calls the sbpiberl function to release a buffer element from an existing buffer.

WIn32

VOID sbpiberl(

    PTRBFELT *eltptr 






   );









MS-DOS, Windows Version 3.x, and OS/2



VOID FAR sbpiberl(





    PTRBFELT FAR *eltptr







   );









Parameters





eltptr



Pointer to a pointer to the element to be released.





Remarks



This function should only be used to release surplus elements from a buffer. The sepdburl function should be called to release the entire buffer.



The released element should first be removed from the element chain and the count of the number of elements updated.



This function is typically used when a received buffer is being reused to transmit a message that is shorter than the incoming message.
