<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.DB_KEYEMPTY</a>.
<p>If the cursor is not yet initialized, the Dbc.del method throws an exception that encapsulates EINVAL.
<p>Otherwise, the Dbc.del method throws an exception that encapsulates a non-zero error value on
failure.
<h1>Errors</h1>
<p>The Dbc.del method may fail and throw an exception encapsulating a non-zero error for the following conditions:
<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_java/env_open.html#DB_INIT_CDB">Db.DB_INIT_CDB</a> flag was
specified to <a href="../api_java/env_open.html">DbEnv.open</a>.
</dl>
<p>If the operation was selected to resolve a deadlock, the
Dbc.del method will fail and
throw a <a href="../api_java/deadlock_class.html">DbDeadlockException</a> exception.
<p>The Dbc.del method may fail and throw an exception 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 throw
a <a href="../api_java/runrec_class.html">DbRunRecoveryException</a>, in which case all subsequent Berkeley DB calls
will fail in the same way.
