# TSMimeHdrFieldRemove(3ts)

TSMimeHdrFieldRemove API function

## NAME

TSMimeHdrFieldRemove - TSMimeHdrFieldRemove API function

## SYNOPSIS

```
#include <ts/ts.h>
```

- ***TSReturnCode* TSMimeHdrFieldRemove(*TSMBuffer* bufp, *TSMLoc* hdr, *TSMLoc* field)**

  ## DESCRIPTION

Removes the MIME field located at *field* within *bufp* from the header located at *hdr* within *bufp*.

If the specified field cannot be found in the list of fields associated with the header then nothing is done.

**NOTE:**

Removing the field does not destroy the field. It only detaches the field, hiding it from the printed output. The field can be reattached with a call to *TSMimeHdrFieldAppend()*.  If you do not use the detached field you should destroy it with a call to *TSMimeHdrFieldDestroy()* and release the handle field with a call to *TSHandleMLocRelease()*.
