gbatch_vardel - is used to delete a variable
int gbatch_vardel(const int fd, const unsigned flags, const slotno_t slot)
The function gbatch_vardel() is used to delete a variable from the variable list.
fd is a file descriptor which was previously returned by a successful call to gbatch_open(3).
flags is 0 or GBATCH_FLAG_IGNORESEQ
to attempt to ignore recent
changes to the variable list.
slot is the slot number corresponding to the variable as returned
by gbatch_varlist(3)
or xb_varfindslot(3).
The function returns 0 if successful, otherwise an error code as defined in the include file \fBgbatch.h\fR.
This example deletes all the variables owned by the user.
int fd, ret, cnt; int numvars; slotno_t *list;
fd = gbatch_open("myhost", (char *)0); ret = gbatch_varlist(fd, GBATCH_FLAG_USERONLY, &numvars, &list); if (fd < 0) { /* process error */ . . . }
for (cnt = 0; cnt < numvars, cnt++) { if ((ret = gbatch_vardel(fd, 0, list[cnt])) < 0) { /* process error */ . . . } }
