NAME

       Blt_TreeDeleteNode - Deletes a node and its descendants.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <bltTree.h>

       Blt_TreeNode
       Blt_TreeDeleteNode(tree, node)

ARGUMENTS

       Blt_Tree       tree   (in)      Tree containing the node.

       Blt_TreeNode   node   (in)      Node to be deleted.
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       This procedure deletes a given node and all it descendants from a tree data object.

       The arguments are as follows:

       tree      The tree containing the parent node.

       node      Node  to  be  deleted.  The node and its descendant nodes are deleted.  Each node's data values
                 are deleted also.   The reference count of the Tcl_Obj is decremented.

       Since all tree objects must contain at least a root node, the root node itself can't  be  deleted  unless
       the  tree  is  released  and destroyed. Therefore you can clear a tree by deleting its root, but the root
       node will remain until the tree is destroyed.

RETURNS

       Always  returns  TCL_OK.   Errors  generated  in  a  notification   callbacks   are   backgrounded   (see
       Tcl_TreeCreateNotifyHandler).

EXAMPLE

       The following example deletes the root node.

              Blt_TreeNode root;

              root = Blt_TreeRootNode(token);
              Blt_TreeDeleteNode(token, root);

NOTIFICATIONS

       Blt_TreeDeleteNode  can  trigger  tree  notify events.  You can be notified whenever a node is deleted by
       using the Blt_TreeCreateNotifyHandler.  A callback routine  is  registered  that  will  be  automatically
       invoked whenever a node is deleted via Blt_TreeDeleteNode to the tree.
