Deleting Documents from a Client Queue
You can delete any documents in a queue. You might want to delete documents from a queue if:
*A document causes the application that processes the document to behave unexpectedly.
*Documents published by a test client or invalid documents published by a misbehaving client.
*The client's subscriptions changed and you want to delete the already enqueued documents that the client no longer subscribes to.
You can delete documents from a client queue regardless of the documents acknowledgement status.
Tip:
You can save a document before deleting it. For information about saving documents in a queue, see Saving Client Queue Documents to a File.
*To delete documents from a client queue
