Odin Rqt-close Today

| Platform | Resource Type | Close Function | |----------|---------------|----------------| | Windows | HANDLE | CloseHandle | | Linux / macOS | file descriptor | close (syscall or libc) | | WebAssembly (WASI) | fd | fd_close |

init_program :: proc() my_handle := CreateFile(...) runtime.add_cleanup(cleanup_my_resource, &my_handle) odin rqt-close

h := CreateFile("data.txt", ...) defer CloseHandle(h) // Guaranteed to run on scope exit // ... use h ... | Platform | Resource Type | Close Function

close_resource :: proc(resource: ^Raw_Resource) when ODIN_OS == "windows" sys.windows.CloseHandle(resource.handle) else when ODIN_OS == "linux" sys.linux.close(resource.fd) resource.valid = false It is a discipline

when ODIN_OS == "windows" close_fn :: proc(h: rawptr) windows.CloseHandle(transmute(windows.HANDLE)h) else when ODIN_OS == "linux" || ODIN_OS == "darwin" close_fn :: proc(fd: rawptr) sys.linux.close(transmute(int)fd)

A typical Odin solution uses conditional compilation:

rqt-close is not a magic keyword or a hidden runtime feature. It is a discipline . By writing an explicit close for every opened file, created handle, or allocated system object, you retain full control over your program’s interaction with the operating system.
