NAME

aunitrm - delete a unit

SYNOPSIS

aunitrm [-hf] Sublibrary { -I | Name ... }

DESCRIPTION

This command removes one or more units from a sublibrary.

OPTIONS

-h

Requests help for the command. If specified, all other options and parameters (except possibly erroneous ones) are ignored.

-f

Indicates that the names specified are actually file names, not compilation unit names. All the units associated with each of the files are removed.

You can specify a source file name either with or without a full directory path. However a sublibrary can contain compilation units from different files with the same base name; you might have some units in the file /u/smith/the_file.ada and other units in the file /u/jones/the_file.ada. If you use the -f option to delete all units associated with the source file the_file.ada, the aunitrm command returns an error. In such a case specify the full path name for the source file.

-I

Specifies that a list of names will be read from standard input. If the -f option is also specified, the names are interpreted as file names. Otherwise the names are interpreted as compilation unit names.

If "--" is found in a line read from standard input, the remainder of the line is ignored.

This option can appear anywhere on the command line; if you use it you cannot also specify a file name as the last command-line parameter.

PARAMETERS

Sublibrary

Specifies the sublibrary from which the units are to be removed. If it is not in the current directory, you must provide a relative or absolute path name.

Name . . .

Specifies the names of the compilation units or source files that will be used in this remove operation.

If the -f option is specified, the name parameter refers to a source file containing the units to be removed.

If the -f option is not specified, the name parameter refers to an Ada compilation unit to be removed. Each unit name must be prefixed with either lib/ or sec/.

RESTRICTIONS

If the source file that contains a compilation unit contains other units as well, you cannot delete just one of the units from the library. Use the -f option, specifying the file name, to delete all the units contained in the file.

This restriction does not apply to a source file containing the specification and body of a compilation unit. Both specification and body are deleted at the same time by the aunitrm command.
