gspool_ptrdel - delete a printer
int gspool_ptrdel(const int fd, const unsigned flags, const slotno_t slot)
The function gspool_ptrdel() is used to delete a printer.
fd is a file descriptor previously returned by gspool_open
flags is either zero, or GSPOOL_FLAG_IGNORESEQ
to ignore changes
since the list was last read.
slot is the slot number corresponding to the printer as previously returned by gspool_ptrlist, or gspool_ptrfindslot.
The function returns 0 if successful otherwise one of the error codes listed in Chapter 3.
An example to delete all printers:
int fd, ret, np, i; slotno_t *slots;
fd = gspool_open("myhost", (char *)0, 0); if (fd < 0) { /* error handling */ ... }
ret = gspool_ptrlist(fd, GSPOOL_LOCALONLY, &np, &slots); if (ret < 0) { /* error handling */ ... }
for (i = 0; i < np; i++) { ret = gspool_ptrdel(fd, 0, slots[i]); if (ret < 0) { /* error handling */ ... } } gspool_close(fd);
