When a critical error occurs in my plugin I want to report an error and force DBP to close. How can I tell DBP to close in this way?

There are two functions within the Core DLL that I used to use:

?CloseDisplay@@YAKXZ -> DWORD __cdecl CloseDisplay(void)
?Quit@@YAKXZ -> DWORD __cdecl Quit(void)

Call them in that order. Then you can do cleanup/display a message box etc, and finally call ExitProcess(0) to end the process.
