);Registration
The valid handle to an open registration object.
Handler
A pointer to the app's callback handler to be invoked for all listener events.
Context
The app context pointer (possibly null) to be associated with the listener object.
Listener
On success, returns a handle to the newly opened listener object.
The function returns a QUIC_STATUS. The app may use QUIC_FAILED or QUIC_SUCCEEDED to determine if the function failed or succeeded.
ListenerOpen is used to allocate resources for a server application to listen for QUIC connections. The server doesn't start listening for connection attempts until ListenerStart is successfully called. For a client application, ConnectionOpen is called to create a new connection, and ConnectionStart to start that new connection.
The application may call ListenerStart and ListenerStop multiple times over the lifetime of a listener object, if it needs to start and stop listening for connections. Most server applications will call ListenerStart once at start up, and then ListenerStop at shutdown.
Every listener created with a call to ListenerOpen MUST be cleaned up with a call to ListenerClose, otherwise a memory leak will occur.
