NAME

LIBRARY

SYNOPSIS

12       #include <ldap.h>
13
14       int ldap_delete_s(ld, dn)
15       LDAP *ld;
16       char *dn;
17
18       int ldap_delete(ld, dn)
19       LDAP *ld;
20       char *dn;
21

DESCRIPTION

23       The ldap_delete_s() routine is used to perform an LDAP delete operation
24       synchronously.  It takes dn, the DN of the entry  to  be  deleted.   It
25       returns  an  LDAP  error code, indicating the success or failure of the
26       operation.
27
28       The ldap_delete() routine is used to perform an LDAP  delete  operation
29       asynchronously.   It  takes the same parameters as ldap_delete_s(), but
30       returns the message id of the request it initiated.  The result of  the
31       delete can be obtained by a subsequent call to ldap_result(3).
32

ERRORS

34       ldap_delete_s()  returns an LDAP error code which can be interpreted by
35       calling one of ldap_perror(3) and friends.  ldap_delete() returns -1 if
36       something  went wrong initiating the request.  It returns the non-nega‐
37       tive message id of the request if things went ok.
