@ERAJV - Delete job variables

The @ERAJV statement deletes job variable entries from the catalog.

Operation	Operands	F mode, L mode
@ERAJV	string [ALL]

string

String indicating the name of the job variable that is to be deleted. All the specifications that are also permitted in the BS2000 macro ERAJV are allowed. It is therefore also possible to make a partially qualified entry or use wildcards. EDT does not perform any full syntax check. If the specification does not designate any existing job variable then message EDT4982 is output.

ALL

If ALL is specified then all the job variables designated by string are removed from the catalog without any confirmation query. If ALL is not specified and more than one job variable indicated by string is present then the statement is not executed in batch mode. In interactive mode, EDT issues the query % EDT0298 ERASE ALL JOBVARIABLES (&00)? REPLY (Y=YES; N=NO)? If the user responds N then the message EDT0299 is output and the statement is aborted.

If the BS2000 macro ERAJV is rejected by the system (for example, if the job variable is password-protected) then EDT reports the error EDT4208.

If the Job Variable Support subsystem is not installed, the statement is rejected with the error message EDT5254. For details concerning job variables, see the User Guide JV [9].
