mysql_stmt_close(3)

  Name
mysql_stmt_close - Closes a prepared statement

  Synopsis

        #include <mysql.h>
        my_bool mysql_stmt_close(MYSQL_STMT * stmt);

  Description
Closes a prepared statement and deallocates the statement handle. If the current statement has pending or unread results, this function cancels them so that the next query can be executed.

  Parameter

•   stmt - a statement handle, which was previously allocated by mysql_stmt_init(3).

  Return value
Returns zero on success, nonzero on error (when communicating with the server). The statement is deallocated, regardless of the error.

  Notes

•   If you want to reuse the statement handle with a different SQL command, use mysql_stmt_reset(3).
