Example — Deleting a Namespace

The sample program in Example 4–21, deletes the specified namespace on the specified host. The program takes five required string arguments (host name, parent namespace, child namespace, username, and password). The user running this program must specify the username and password for an account that has write permission to the namespace to be deleted.
