DELETEP monitor command DELETEP monitor command Syntax DELETEP program , ..., program Function Delete the named programs from the system memory. Usage Considerations A program cannot be deleted while it is executing (or is present on an active execution stack, as shown by the STATUS command). Subroutines and variables referenced by the deleted programs are not deleted. (See the DELETE command.) DELETEP removes a program from memory; it does not erase the associated disk file. In general, it is good programming practice to group programs into modules, so DELETEM should normally be used, instead of DELETEP. Parameter program Name of a program to be deleted.
Details Deletes an arbitrary number of programs from the system memory. This operation can be used to recover the memory storage space occupied by programs that are no longer needed. Unlike the DELETE command, DELETEP does not delete subroutines or variables referenced by the named programs. NOTE : Programs are not deleted if they are in an active program execution stack (as shown by the STATUS command). A KILL command should be used to clear the appropriate program execution stack before deleting programs referenced in the stack. Example Delete the program named "test.one".
