LDAP Library Functions                         ldapdelete(3LDAP)



NAME
     ldapdelete,         ldapdeletes,         ldapdeleteext,
     ldapdeleteexts - LDAP delete operation

SYNOPSIS
     cc[ flag... ] file... -lldap[ library... ]
     #include 
     #include 

     int ldapdelete(LDAP *ld, char *dn);


     int ldapdeletes(LDAP *ld, char *dn);


     int ldapdeleteext(LDAP *ld, char *dn, LDAPControl **serverctrls,
          LDAPControl **clientctrls, int *msgidp);


     int ldapdeleteexts(LDAP *ld, char *dn, LDAPControl **serverctrls,
          LDAPControl **clientctrls);


DESCRIPTION
     The ldapdeletes() function is  used  to  perform  an  LDAP
     delete  operation synchronously.  It takes dn, the DN of the
     entry to be deleted. It returns an LDAP error code, indicat-
     ing the success or failure of the operation.


     The ldapdelete() function is used to perform an LDAP delete
     operation  asynchronously.   It takes the same parameters as
     ldapdeletes(), but returns the message id of  the  request
     it initiated.  The result of the delete can be obtained by a
     subsequent call to ldapresult(3LDAP).


     The  ldapdeleteext() function  initiates  an  asynchronous
     delete  operation  and  returns  LDAPSUCES if the request
     was successfully sent to the server, or else  it  returns  a
     LDAP error code if not (see  ldaperror(3LDAP)). If success-
     ful,  ldapdeleteext() places the message id of the request
     in   *msgidp.  A  subsequent  call to  ldapresult(), can be
     used to obtain the result of the add request.


     The  ldapdeleteexts() function  initiates  a  synchronous
     delete  operation  and  as  such  returns  the result of the
     operation itself.

LDAP Library Functions                         ldapdelete(3LDAP)



     ldapdeletes() returns an LDAP  error  code  which  can  be
     interpreted  by calling one of ldapperror(3LDAP) functions.
     ldapdelete() returns  -1 if something went wrong initiating
     the  request.  It returns the non-negative message id of the
     request if things were successful.
