Removing Objects from System Memory Objects do not have to be removed from RAM before different disk files are loaded and other programs are executed (unless you are loading a program with the same name as one already in RAM). However, if you get an "out of memory" message while loading a disk file, the only way to complete the load operation is to delete objects from system memory. In addition to the commands described previously, the FDELETE command removes disk files from the SD card. NOTE: Once a disk file is deleted from the storage device, it cannot be recovered. FDELETE does not remove objects from RAM (if they have been loaded). The DELETE commands remove objects from RAM.
This does not delete a program that is being executed or is present on the stack for any execution task. These commands do not affect the disk files from which the objects were loaded. After objects have been removed from RAM, they can be reloaded using the LOAD command (but, of course, only if they are stored on disk). eV+Operating System User's Guide, v2.x, 18320-000 Rev A Page 52
