NAME

       remove -  Removes a file

LIBRARY

       Standard C Library (libc.so, libc.a)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <stdio.h>

       int remove(	const char *path );

STANDARDS

       Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows:

       remove():  POSIX.1, XPG4, XPG4-UNIX

       Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags.

PARAMETERS

       Points to the file to be removed.

DESCRIPTION

       The remove() function causes a file named by the pathname pointed to by path to be no longer accessible by that name.  A subsequent attempt
       to open that file using that name will fail unless it is created anew.

       If the path parameter names a directory, remove(path) is equivalent to calling the rmdir() function on that directory.  If  path  does  not
       name a directory, remove(path) is equivalent to unlink(path).

NOTES

       If  the	file operated upon by the remove() function has multiple hard links, the link count in the file is decremented and only the speci-
       fied file name is removed.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, the remove() function returns 0 (zero). Otherwise, a nonzero value is returned.  Refer to the unlink() function
       and the rmdir() function for information on return values.

ERRORS

       Refer to the unlink() function and the rmdir() function for information on error conditions.
