SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>

int lfc_delfilesbyname (int nbfiles, const char **paths, int force, int
*nbstatuses, int **statuses)
DESCRIPTION
lfc_delfilesbyname deletes the file entries corresponding to a list of
path names. If replicas exist and the force argument is not zero, all
replicas are first removed.
nbfiles
specifies the number of path names in the array paths.
paths specifies the list of logical path names relative to the current
LFC directory or the list of full LFC path names.
nbstatuses
will be set to the number of replies in the array of statuses.
statuses
will be set to the address of an array of integer statuses
allocated by the API. The client application is responsible for
freeing the array when not needed anymore.
