PCAP_CLOSE(3PCAP)					       PCAP_CLOSE(3PCAP)

NAME
     pcap_close - close a capture device or savefile

SYNOPSIS
     #include <pcap/pcap.h>

     void pcap_close(pcap_t *p);

DESCRIPTION
     pcap_close()  closes the files associated with p and deallocates resources.
     This means that, for example, if p refers to a  savefile  that  was  opened
     with  pcap_fopen_offline()  or  pcap_fopen_offline_with_tstamp_precision(),
     the stream provided to the routine will be closed unless it is stdin.
