Deletes one or more MPE/iX variables. (Native Mode) Parameters | |
- varname
The name of the variable to be deleted.
Operation Notes | |
Deletes a specific MPE/iX variable, or all variables specified
by a pattern. If you specify more than one varname,
you must separate them with commas. You may use the wildcard characters, @,
#, ?,
and [ ] to specify
a set or range of values. - @
Specifies zero or more alphanumeric characters,
or the underbar character (_).
Used by itself, it specifies all possible combinations of such characters.
Used with other characters it indicates all the possible names that
include the specified characters. @ABC@
specifies all names that include ABC
anywhere in the name. - #
Specifies one numeric character. A###@
specifies all names that begin with A
followed by any three digits, followed by any combination of 0 to
251 alphanumeric (or underbar) characters. - ?
Specifies one alphanumeric character. A?#
specifies all three-character names that begin with A,
followed by an alphanumeric, followed by a digit. - [ ]
Specifies a set or range of characters. The set
may appear anywhere in the name. This range specification is not
case sensitive and, therefore, [A-K]
is the same as [a-k].
If you specify a null set such as [k-a],
MPE/iX reports an error. - @[abc]@# =
All names containing A,
B, or C
and ending in a single digit. - [a-k]@ =
All names that begin with any one of the letters
A through K. - [n-a] =
Is not valid and is flagged as an error.
