FLAM

Synopsis

HELP:   FLAM archive delete parameter
TYPE:   OBJECT
SYNTAX: FLAM(DECRYPT/IMPORT.{},MEMBER['str'/STREAM/DUMMY...],EXCLUDE='str',MATCH[{}...],SUBSET[=SEGMENT/RECORD/AUTO])

Description

This object defines which members, segments or records are deleted from the FLAM archive. If you define the match parameters for individual record segments here, the entire member is deleted by default if there is a match. If you activate the SUBSET parameter, only the individual records or segments for which there was a match are deleted. As it makes no sense to delete entire segments when searching for individual records, you should not work with filters here so that only individual records are deleted in this case.

Arguments

• STRING: MEMBER['str'/STREAM/DUMMY...] - List of member names (with wild cards) in the FLAM archive
  • STREAM - Read from stdin or write to stdout
  • DUMMY - Read EOF or write nothing
• STRING: EXCLUDE='str' - Exclude members matching the specified wildcard pattern from processing
• NUMBER: SUBSET=SEGMENT/RECORD/AUTO - Select only matched segments or records to delete a subset [AUTO]
  • SEGMENT - Select complete segment
  • RECORD - Select matching records
  • AUTO - Select segment at COPY and records at DECO
