DL_DbDelete

NAME
  DL_DbDelete, CSSM_DL_DbDelete - Delete all records (CDSA)

SYNOPSIS
  # include <cssm.h>

   API:
       CSSM_RETURN CSSMAPI CSSM_DL_DbDelete
       (CSSM_DL_HANDLE DLHandle,
       const char *DbName,
       const CSSM_NET_ADDRESS *DbLocation,
       const CSSM_ACCESS_CREDENTIALS *AccessCred)
   SPI:
       CSSM_RETURN CSSMDLI DL_DbDelete
       (CSSM_DL_HANDLE DLHandle,
       const char *DbName,
       const CSSM_NET_ADDRESS *DbLocation,
       const CSSM_ACCESS_CREDENTIALS *AccessCred)

LIBRARY
  Common Security Services Manager library (CDSA$INCSSM300_SHR.EXE)

PARAMETERS
  DLHandle (input)
          The handle that describes the add-in data storage library
          module to be used to perform this function.

  DbName (input)
          A pointer to the string containing the logical name of the
          data store.

  DbLocation (input/optional)
          A pointer to a network address directly or indirectly
          identifying the location of the storage service process. If
          the input is NULL, the module can assume a default storage
          service process location. If the DbName does not distinguish
          the storage service process, the service cannot be performed
          and the operation fails.

  AccessCred (input/optional)
          A pointer to the set of one or more credentials being presented
          for authentication by the caller. These credentials are
          required to obtain access to the specified data store. The
          credentials structure can contain multiple types of credentials,
          as required for multi-factor authentication. The credential
          data can be an immediate value, such as a passphrase, PIN,
          certificate, or template of user-specific data, or the caller
          can specify a callback function the DL can use to obtain one
          or more credentials.  The required set of credentials to access
          a particular data store is defined by the DbInfo record
          containing meta-data for the specified data store. If
          credentials are not required to access the specified data
          store, then this field can be NULL.

DESCRIPTION
  This function deletes all records from the specified data store and
  removes all state information associated with that data store.

RETURN VALUE
  A CSSM_RETURN value indicating success or specifying a particular
  error condition. The value CSSM_OK indicates success. All other
  values represent an error condition.

ERRORS
  Errors are described in the CDSA technical standard.  See CDSA.

       CSSMERR_DL_DATASTORE_DOESNOT_EXIST
       CSSMERR_DL_DATASTORE_IS_OPEN
       CSSMERR_DL_INVALID_DB_LOCATION
       CSSMERR_DL_INVALID_DB_NAME
