Description

NULL is the Windows counterpart of the Xbase++ NIL value. It is used to represent an invalid pointer. Using NULL instead of a valid address as a pointer parameter advises the called function that an expected optional string (structure, handle, etc.) was not supplied or that no return value for this parameter is expected by the calling function. The actual value of NULL is 0.
