ceRegistryDeleteKey (Function)

In french: ceRegistreSupprimeClé

Deletes a sub-key from the registry of the Mobile Device (Pocket PC) connected to the current computer.

Note: To handle the registry of the Mobile Device, a connection must be established between the current computer and the Mobile Device (ceConnect).

Example

Path is string
// Find out the name of primary key
Path = ceRegistryFirstSubKey()
// Delete the key from "MyApp"
Path = Path + "\MyApp\"
IF ceRegistryDeleteKey(Path) = True THEN
Info("The key was deleted.")
ELSE
Error("Error during the deletion.", ErrorInfo())
END

Syntax

<Result> = ceRegistryDeleteKey(<Sub-key path>)

<Result>: Boolean

True if the key was deleted,
False otherwise. To find out the error details, use ErrorInfo.

<Sub-key path>: Character string (with quotes)

Full path of sub-key to delete.

Remarks

Registry of the Mobile Device

The following branches do not exist on a Mobile Device:

HKEY_PERFORMANCE_DATA,
HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG,
HKEY_DYN_DATA.

Equivalence

The operating mode of ceRegistryDeleteKey is equivalent to the operating mode of RegistryDeleteKey.

The only difference is:

ceRegistryDeleteKey handles the registry of the Mobile Device from a WINDEV application.
RegistryDeleteKey handles the registry of the Mobile Device only from a WINDEV Mobile application.

Registry of a Smartphone

The access to the registry may fail on some Smartphones. In this case, the ErrorOccurred variable is set to True.
