Function
Deletes a named component from a Field.
Syntax
#include <dx/dx.h>
Field DXDeleteComponent(Field f, char *component)
Functional Details
Deletes component from a Field f. Any attributes associated with the named component are also deleted from the Field.
Deleting a component from a Field may alter the structure of the Field in significant ways. For example, if the "positions" component is removed, any other components that contain references to positions become invalid. For this reason, DXChangedComponentStructure may be used to ensure that the remaining structure of the Field is consistent.
Return Value
Returns f or returns NULL but does not set an error code if the component does not exist.
