The Delete Object  Type command allows  you to delete one,  generic, or
a list  of object types  in a library.   Most popular  object types are
supported.    If *FILE  type objects  are  requested, all  non physical
files are deleted  first.  A  spooled file describes  the results.   An
escape message  will occur if not  all of the requested  objects can be
deleted.

DLTOBJTYP  differs from DLTOBJ2  in that all  objects of a  type may be
deleted in a single library.

You must  be  authorized  to  delete the  requested  objects  and  they
cannot be allocated.

A typical command would be:

             DLTOBJTYP     OBJ(xxx/*ALL) OBJTYPE(*PGM *DTAARA)

All programs and data  areas would be deleted in the named  library.  A
spooled file would describe the results.

DLTOBJTYP escape messages you can monitor for
---------------------------------------------

      TAA9894    No object/types were found in the specified library
      TAA9895    Not all object/types requested were deleted

Escape messages from based on functions will be re-sent.

Command parameters                                    *CMD
------------------

   OBJ           The  qualified name of  the object  to be deleted.   A
                 single object name,  a generic  name, or  *ALL may  be
                 specified.

                 A  library name  must  be  entered.   *CURLIB  may  be
                 used.

   OBJTYPE       The  object  type to  be  deleted.   Up  to 40  object
                 types  may be  named or the  special value  *ALL.  Use
                 the command prompter to determine the valid types.

                 *ALL deletes  only those object  types shown with  the
                 command prompter.

   CLEARQ        Whether to  clear any *JOBQ or *OUTQ  objects that are
                 specified  to  be deleted.   *JOBQ  and  *OUTQ objects
                 may not be deleted unless they are cleared.

                 *YES is the default to  clear *JOBQ and *OUTQ  objects
                 before  they are  deleted.    Note that  only  objects
                 specified to be deleted will be cleared.

                 *NO may  be specified to not clear  the *JOBQ or *OUTQ
                 objects.    If  entries  exist,  the  delete  of   the
                 objects will fail and an exception will be noted.

Restrictions
------------

You must have all rights to the object to delete it.
