The following excerpt demonstrates how to delete an entry with DN
cn=Ted,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com.
final LDAPConnectionFactory factory = new LDAPConnectionFactory(host, port);
Connection connection = null;
try {
connection = factory.getConnection();
// Bind as a user who has the right to delete entries.
connection.bind(adminDN, adminPwd);
connection.delete("cn=Ted,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com");
} catch (final ErrorResultException e) {
System.err.println(e.getMessage());
System.exit(e.getResult().getResultCode().intValue());
return;
} finally {
if (connection != null) {
connection.close();
}
}If you must delete an entire branch of entries instead of a single
leaf entry, build a DeleteRequest that includes the
SubtreeDeleteRequestControl, as described in the
section, Subtree Delete
Request Control.
