LocalSize

The LocalSize function returns the current size, in bytes, of the specified local memory object.

UINT LocalSize(

HLOCAL hMem	// handle of local memory object
);

Parameters
hMem

Identifies the local memory object. This handle is returned by the LocalAlloc, LocalReAlloc, or LocalHandle function.

Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is the size, in bytes, of the specified local memory object. If the specified handle is not valid or if the object has been discarded, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

Remarks
The size of a memory block may be larger than the size requested when the memory was allocated.

To verify that the specified object's memory block has not been discarded, call the LocalFlags function before calling LocalSize.
