Blt_TreeDeleteNode(3)	     BLT Library Procedures	   Blt_TreeDeleteNode(3)

________________________________________________________________________________

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  refer-
	       ence count of the Tcl_Obj is decremented.

     Since all tree objects must contain at least a root node, the root node it-
     self  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.

KEYWORDS
