<h3><pre>
#include &lt;db_cxx.h&gt;
<p>
int
Dbc::del(u_int32_t flags);
</pre></h3>
<h1>Description</h1>
<p>The Dbc::del method deletes the key/data pair currently referenced by
the cursor.
<p>The <b>flags</b> parameter is currently unused, and must be set to 0.
<p>The cursor position is unchanged after a delete, and subsequent calls to
cursor functions expecting the cursor to reference an existing key will
fail.
<p>If the element has already been deleted, Dbc::del will return
<a href="../ref/program/errorret.html#DB_KEYEMPTY">DB_KEYEMPTY</a>.
<p>If the cursor is not yet initialized, the Dbc::del method either returns EINVAL or throws an exception that encapsulates EINVAL.
<p>Otherwise, the Dbc::del method either returns a non-zero error value or throws an exception that
encapsulates a non-zero error value on failure, and returns 0 on success.
<h1>Errors</h1>
<p>The Dbc::del method may fail and throw an exception or return a non-zero error for the following conditions:
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt>DB_LOCK_DEADLOCK<dd>The operation was selected to resolve a deadlock.
</dl>
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt>EINVAL<dd>An invalid flag value or parameter was specified.
</dl>
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt>EPERM  <dd>Write attempted on read-only cursor when the <a href="../api_cxx/env_open.html#DB_INIT_CDB">DB_INIT_CDB</a> flag was
specified to <a href="../api_cxx/env_open.html">DbEnv::open</a>.
</dl>
<p>The Dbc::del method may fail and throw an exception or return a non-zero error for errors specified for other Berkeley DB and C library or system methods.
If a catastrophic error has occurred, the Dbc::del method may fail and either
return <a href="../ref/program/errorret.html#DB_RUNRECOVERY">DB_RUNRECOVERY</a> or throw an exception encapsulating
<a href="../ref/program/errorret.html#DB_RUNRECOVERY">DB_RUNRECOVERY</a>, in which case all subsequent Berkeley DB calls will fail
in the same way.
