It takes \fIdn\fP, the DN of the entry to be deleted. +It returns an LDAP error code, indicating the success or failure of the +operation. +.LP +The +.B ldap_delete() +routine is used to perform an LDAP delete operation +asynchronously. It takes the same parameters as +.BR ldap_delete_s(), +but returns the message id of the request it initiated. The result of +the delete can be obtained by a subsequent call to +.BR ldap_result (3). +.LP +The +.B ldap_delete_ext() +routine allows server and client controls to be +specified to extend the delete request. This routine is asynchronous like +ldap_delete(), but its return value is an LDAP error code. It stores the +message id of the request in the integer pointed to by msgidp. +.LP +The +.B ldap_delete_ext_s() +routine is the synchronous version of +.BR ldap_delete_ext(). +It also returns an LDAP error code indicating success +or failure of the operation. +.SH ERRORS +.B ldap_delete_s() +returns an LDAP error code which can be interpreted +by calling one of +.BR ldap_perror (3) +and friends. +.B ldap_delete() +returns \-1 if something went wrong initiating the request. It returns the +non-negative message id of the request if things went ok. +.LP +.B ldap_delete_ext() +and +.B ldap_delete_ext_s() +return some Non-zero value if +something went wrong initiating the request, else return 0. +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR ldap (3), +.BR ldap_error (3) +.SH ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS +.so ../Project |
