unloads all functions that have been loaded from a Wolfram Library, then it unloads the library.

Details

  • On certain platforms, when all functions from a library have been unloaded, the library can be modified and reloaded.
  • LibraryUnload will unload a library that does not follow the Wolfram Library specification.
  • When a Wolfram Library is unloaded, an uninitialization function in the library is called.
