ldap_delete, ldap_delete_s - Perform an LDAP delete opera­
       tion


SYNOPSIS

       #include <ldap.h>

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

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


DESCRIPTION

       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 param­
       eters  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).


ERRORS

       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 initiat­
       ing the request.  It returns the non-negative  message  id
       of the request if things went ok.
