This section provides instructions for using the delete function in menu mode.
To delete single or multiple objects
In the SYSMAIN menu, select or enter
D and then select Programming Objects.
An object-specification window similar to the example below appears:
+-------------------- DELETE --------------------+ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ OBJECT: ¦ ¦ LIBRARY: SYSTEM CODE: X (S)ource ¦ ¦ DBID: 99 FNR: 51 X (C)ataloged ¦ ¦ USER ID: XREF: n ¦ ¦ DATE: - - : CONFIRM: y ¦ +------------------------------------------------+ |
Enter the selection criteria required for specifying the objects to be deleted. For explanations of the fields contained in this window and valid input values, see Using the Fields in an Object-Specification Window.
Note:
Since XRef data is always deleted when you delete an object, you
can ignore the XREF setting.
Confirm your object specifications with ENTER:
If you entered single names in the OBJECT and LIBRARY fields and a matching object is found, skip to Step 9.
If you entered a name range in the LIBRARY field, all libraries within the range specified are listed for selection (see the example window shown earlier).
Select the library required.
The object-specification screen appears with the selected library entered in the LIBRARY field.
Choose ENTER to continue:
If you entered a single name in the OBJECT field and a matching object is found, skip to Step 9.
If you entered a name range in the OBJECT field, the OBJECT TYPE window appears (shown and described earlier).
Select one or more object types required.
A window similar to the example below appears:
+--------------------------------------------+ ¦X Select the specified Object(s) for delete ¦ ¦ Delete ALL specified Object(s) ¦ +--------------------------------------------+ |
If you do not want to select all matching objects individually from a list, mark Delete ALL specified Object(s) by choosing DOWN ARROW, then skip to Step 9.
Or:
If you want to select all matching objects individually from a list,
mark Select the specified Object(s) for delete by choosing
UP ARROW if required (marked by default):
If a single object is found, skip to Step 9.
If multiple objects are found, a selection window appears that looks similar to the result window shown and explained earlier.
Select the objects you want to delete.
If the CONFIRM
option is set to Y (Yes; this is the default setting), a window
similar to the one below appears :
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ ¦ Are you sure you want to delete this Object ? Y/N ¦ +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
Enter Y (Yes) to confirm each object replacement.
Or:
Enter N (No) to reject each object
replacement.
When the delete function completed successfully, an appropriate confirmation message appears in the object-specification window.
