CeDeleteDatabaseEx
This function removes a database from the object store or a mounted database volume. A remote application interface (RAPI) version of this function exists, and it is also named CeDeleteDatabaseEx.
BOOL CeDeleteDatabaseEx(
PCEGUID pguid,
CEOID oid );
Parameters
- pguid
[in] Pointer to the CEGUID that contains the globally unique identifier of a mounted database. - oid
[in] Object identifier of the database to be deleted.
Return Values
TRUE indicates success. FALSE indicates failure. To get extended error information, call GetLastError. Possible values for GetLastError include the following:
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER | A parameter was invalid. |
| ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION | The file is in use. |
Remarks
Note Earlier versions (2.12 and prior) of Windows CE assigned OIDs to objects in other file systems, such as the FAT file system. These OIDs were guaranteed to be unique within a volume, but not across multiple volumes. Effective with version 3.0, only objects in the object store have valid, unique OIDs and the object store is the only volume that can return an object identifier.
Requirements
| Runs on | Versions | Defined in | Include | Link to |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Windows CE OS | 2.10 and later | Windbase.h | Winbase.h | Fsdbase.lib |
Note This API is part of the complete Windows CE OS package as provided by Microsoft. The functionality of a particular platform is determined by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and some devices may not support this API.
