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.
