(PECL wincache >= 1.1.0)

wincache_ucache_delete — Deletes variables from the user cache

### Description

bool wincache_ucache_delete ( mixed `$key` )

Deletes the elements in the user cache pointed by `key`.

### Parameters

`key`

  The `key` that was used to store the variable in the cache. `key` is case sensitive. `key` can be an array of keys.

### Return Values

Returns `TRUE` on success or `FALSE` on failure.

If `key` is an array then the function returns `FALSE` if every element of the array fails to get deleted from the user cache, otherwise returns an array which consists of all the keys that are deleted.

### Examples

Example #1 Using wincache_ucache_delete() with `key` as a string

`<?php
wincache_ucache_set('foo', 'bar');
var_dump(wincache_ucache_delete('foo'));
var_dump(wincache_ucache_exists('foo'));
?>`

The above example will output:

    bool(true)
    bool(false)

Example #2 Usingwincache_ucache_delete() with `key` as an array

`<?php
$array1 = array('green' => '5', 'blue' => '6', 'yellow' => '7', 'cyan' => '8');
wincache_ucache_set($array1);
$array2 = array('green', 'blue', 'yellow', 'cyan');
var_dump(wincache_ucache_delete($array2));
?>`

The above example will output:

    array(4) { [0]=> string(5) "green"
               [1]=> string(4) "Blue"
               [2]=> string(6) "yellow"
               [3]=> string(4) "cyan" }

Example #3 Using wincache_ucache_delete() with `key` as an array where some elements cannot be deleted

`<?php
$array1 = array('green' => '5', 'blue' => '6', 'yellow' => '7', 'cyan' => '8');
wincache_ucache_set($array1);
$array2 = array('orange', 'red', 'yellow', 'cyan');
var_dump(wincache_ucache_delete($array2));
?>`

The above example will output:

    array(2) { [0]=> string(6) "yellow"
               [1]=> string(4) "cyan" }
