	There is no CloseResource() function. When you are done with a resource, you are done with it. However, as you will see ~~later in this chapter~~, some resources provide functions to allocate parts of the hardware they access. In those cases, you will have to free those parts for anyone else to use them.		There is no CloseResource() function. When you are done with a resource, you are done with it.

	Each resource has at least one include file in the resources subdirectory of the include directory. Some of the include files contain only the name of the resource; others list structures and bit definitions used by the resource. The include files will be listed at the end of this ~~chapter~~.
