LETTERabortULETTER Aborts the program.

Overview
#include <stdlib.h>

void abort(void)

Portability
ANSI

Description
The program will be immediately aborted - without calls to destructors, atexit functions and resource freeing. Shared libraries must not call this function.

The return value to the calling process (in most cases the CLI the program was run from) is 3. The user will not be notified, however you may replace the function using signal . The standard function is called "abort_STANDARD" and must be called externally using "ASM".
