DLTGSS (Delete Graphics Symbol Set)

DLTGSS Command syntax diagram

 

Purpose

The Delete Graphics Symbol Set (DLTGSS) command deletes a graphics symbol set or group of graphic symbol sets from one or more libraries.

Restriction: The user must have object existence authority for the graphics symbol set being deleted.

 

Required Parameters

GSS
Specifies the qualified name of the graphics symbol set or sets being deleted. A specific graphics symbol set or a generic graphics symbol set can be specified; either type can be optionally qualified by a library name. If no library type is given, *LIBL/ is used to find the graphics symbol set.

The name of the graphics symbol set can be qualified by one of the following library values:

*LIBL: All libraries in the job's library list are searched until the first match is found.

*CURLIB: The current library for the job is searched. If no library is specified as the current library for the job, the QGPL library is used.

*USRLIBL: Only the libraries in the user portion of the job's library list are searched.

*ALL: All libraries in the system, including QSYS, are searched.

*ALLUSR Libraries

library-name: Specify the name of the library to be searched.

graphics-symbol-set-name: Specify the name of the graphics symbol set being deleted.

generic*-graphics-symbol-set-name: Specify the generic name of the graphics symbol set that is being deleted. A generic name is a character string of one or more characters followed by an asterisk (*); for example, ABC*. The asterisk substitutes for any valid characters. A generic name specifies all objects with names that begin with the generic prefix for which the user has authority. If an asterisk is not included with the generic (prefix) name, the system assumes it to be the complete object name. If the complete object name is specified, and multiple libraries are searched, multiple objects can be deleted only if *ALL or *ALLUSR library values can be specified for the name. For more information on the use of generic names, refer to generic names.
