Closing the connection

After opening a connection to Asdf Overlay, it is important to close the connection properly to free up resources. The Overlay instance provides a method to close the connection and unload the overlay dll from the target process.

Following code demonstrates how to close the overlay connection.

import { Overlay } from '@asdf-overlay/core';

const overlay: Overlay = /* previously attached Overlay instance */;
overlay.destroy();

Some caveats included below:

1. After calling the destroy method, the overlay setup in the target process will be reset, and the resources will be released.
2. You cannot use the Overlay instance after calling this method.
