LDAP_DELETE(3) Library Functions Manual LDAP_DELETE(3)
ldap_delete, ldap_delete_s, ldap_delete_ext, ldap_delete_ext_s -
Perform an LDAP delete operation.
OpenLDAP LDAP (libldap, -lldap)
#include <ldap.h>
int ldap_delete_s(ld, dn)
LDAP *ld;
char *dn;
int ldap_delete(ld, dn)
LDAP *ld;
char *dn;
int ldap_delete_ext(ld, dn, serverctrls, clientctrls, msgidp)
LDAP *ld;
char *dn;
LDAPControl **serverctrls, **clientctrls;
int *msgidp;
int ldap_delete_ext_s(ld, dn, serverctrls, clientctrls)
LDAP *ld;
char *dn;
LDAPControl **serverctrls, **clientctrls;
The ldap_delete_s() routine 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, indicating the success or
failure of the operation.
The ldap_delete() routine is used to perform an LDAP delete
operation asynchronously. It takes the same parameters as
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 ldap_result(3).
The 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.
The ldap_delete_ext_s() routine is the synchronous version of
ldap_delete_ext(). It also returns an LDAP error code indicating
success or failure of the operation.
ldap_delete_s() returns an LDAP error code which can be
interpreted by calling one of ldap_perror(3) and friends.
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.
ldap_delete_ext() and ldap_delete_ext_s() return some Non-zero
value if something went wrong initiating the request, else return
0.
