Send Feedback

This method removes a database from the object store or a mounted database volume on a remote Microsoft® Windows® CE–based device.

BOOL CeDeleteDatabaseEx( 
  PCEGUID pguid, 
  CEOID oid 
);

Parameters

  • pguid
    [in] Pointer to the CEGUID that contains the globally unique identifier (GUID) of a mounted database volume.
  • oid
    [in] Object identifier of the database to be deleted.

Return Values

Nonzero indicates success. Zero indicates failure. To get extended error information, call IRAPISession::CeGetLastError and IRAPISession::CeRapiGetError. Possible values for IRAPISession::CeGetLastError include the following:

Value Description
ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER A parameter was invalid.
ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION The file is in use.

Note   Earlier versions of Windows CE assigned object identifiers to objects in other file systems, such as the file allocation table (FAT) file system. These object identifiers 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 object identifiers and the object store is the only volume that can return an object identifier.

RAPI method calls that access databases will fail on devices running in restricted mode unless the database permissions are explicitly set to allow RAPI access. For more information, see RAPI Restricted Mode Security.

Requirements

OS Versions: Windows CE 5.01 and later.
Header: Rapi2.h.
Link Library: Ole32.lib, Rapiuuid.lib.
