NAME
       ldap_delete, ldap_delete_s - Perform an LDAP delete operation

LIBRARY
       OpenLDAP LDAP (libldap, -lldap)

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 opera-
       tion 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).

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