AddResource sets the resChanged resource attribute.  The SetResAttrs call
above will clear resChanged.  See IM I-122, SetResAttrs -- but ignore the
cited necessity of calling ChangedResource in any case, as SetResAttrs
sets the mapChanged resource map attribute; in your case, AddResource
sets mapChanged also.

ReleaseResource is equivalent to DetachResource followed by DisposHandle.
See IM I-120, ReleaseResource.
