How we can delete all the Logical File of a Physical file
in one instance ?
Answer Posted / abhishek
Hi Friends,
There is no command which directly deletes all the
depandent logical.
Regarding use of option delete dependant file under CHGPF:
Consider example below:
Lets say PF has 3 fields... Fld1, Fld2 & Fld3
First LF has key field as Fld1.
Second LF has key field as Fld2
1. Pl note that delete dependant file option will only come
when you specify the source name and libr along with object
name & libr.
2. Lets say, I have removed one of the field named Fld2
from my PF. Obviously, my second LF is of no use, as field
use by this file is removed. Now, if I specify, DELETE
DEPENDANT FILES as *YES under CHGPF command, it will first
change my PF properties (as expected) and will also delete
SECOND LOGICAL FILE (as it has a dependant field).
Hope, it helps. Cheers.
