NetKernel Foundation API

The delete accessor is provided for use with the DPML language. It is more efficient to use the following NKF method with scripting languages:

INKFConvenienceHelper.delete() issue DELETE request for resource

Purpose

The delete accessor will delete a resource from its underlying location if supported by its URA. Currently the file: and ffcpl: data accessors support the delete operation.

Note: The delete operation does not ask for confirmation and is permanent.
