PR_Delete
syntax #include <prio.h> prstatus pr_delete(const char *name); parameters the function has the following parameter: name the pathname of the file to be deleted.
... description pr_delete deletes a file with the specified pathname name.

PR_DELETE
syntax #include <prmem.h> void pr_delete(_ptr); parameter _ptr the address of memory to be returned to the heap.

PR_DeleteSemaphore
syntax #include <pripcsem.h> nspr_api(prstatus) pr_deletesemaphore(const char *name); parameter the function has the following parameter: name the name of a semaphore that was previously created via a call to pr_opensemaphore.

PR_DeleteSharedMemory
syntax #include <prshm.h> nspr_api( prstatus ) pr_deletesharedmemory( const char *name ); parameter the function has these parameter: shm the handle returned from pr_opensharedmemory.
