.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
Superseded by \fI\%mongoc_collection_delete_one()\fP and \fI\%mongoc_collection_delete_many()\fP\&.
.sp
This function shall remove documents in the given \fBcollection\fP that match \fBselector\fP\&. The bson \fBselector\fP is not validated, simply passed along as appropriate to the server.  As such, compatibility and errors should be validated in the appropriate server documentation.
.sp
If you want to limit deletes to a single document, provide \fBMONGOC_REMOVE_SINGLE_REMOVE\fP in \fBflags\fP\&.
.SH ERRORS
.sp
Errors are propagated via the \fBerror\fP parameter.
.SH RETURNS
.sp
Returns \fBtrue\fP if successful. Returns \fBfalse\fP and sets \fBerror\fP if there are invalid arguments or a server or network error.
