CeDeleteDatabase (RAPI)
This function removes a database from the object store. CeCreateDatabase (RAPI) is a remote application interface, which enables an application running on a desktop computer to make function calls on a Windows CE–based device.
BOOL CeDeleteDatabase(
CEOID oidDbase);
Parameters
- oidDbase
[in] Object identifier of the database to be deleted.
Return Values
TRUE indicates success. FALSE indicates failure. To get extended error information within a RAPI program, call CeGetLastError. Possible values for CeGetLastError include the following:
- ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER
A parameter was invalid. - ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION
Another thread has an open handle to the database.
Remarks
The CeDeleteDatabase (RAPI) function deletes a database, including all records in the database.
Note Earlier versions 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.
