public:
 static bool DeleteProfile(System::String ^ username);

public static bool DeleteProfile (string username);

static member DeleteProfile : string -> bool

Public Shared Function DeleteProfile (username As String) As Boolean

Parameters

username: String

The user name for the profile to be deleted.

Returns

Boolean

true if the user profile was found and deleted; otherwise, false.

Exceptions

ArgumentException

username is an empty string ("") or contains a comma.

ArgumentNullException

username is null.

Examples

The following code example shows an ASP.NET page that manages inactive profiles. The DeleteProfile method is called when a single profile is selected to be deleted. Whether a profile is considered inactive is based on the date specified for the userInactiveSinceDate parameter value passed to the GetAllInactiveProfiles method.

Important

This example contains a text box that accepts user input, which is a potential security threat. By default, ASP.NET Web pages validate that user input does not include script or HTML elements. For more information, see Script Exploits Overview.

Remarks

The DeleteProfile method deletes all profile information and properties for the user profile for the specified username from the data source for the specified ApplicationName.

The DeleteProfile method calls the DeleteProfiles method of the default profile provider to perform the delete operation. The default profile provider is specified using the defaultProvider attribute of the profile configuration element. If the user profile contains properties that are managed by a profile provider other than the default provider, they are not deleted. To delete profile properties that are managed by a profile provider other than the default provider, obtain a reference to the profile provider using the Providers property and call the DeleteProfiles method of the provider directly.
