NAME

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.

CSSMERR_DL_DATASTORE_DOESNOT_EXIST
CSSMERR_DL_DATASTORE_IS_OPEN
CSSMERR_DL_INVALID_DB_LOCATION
CSSMERR_DL_INVALID_DB_NAME
