NAME

a.rm − remove source unit and library information

FORMAT

a.rm [options] [-u] unit_name... [ada_source]... 
 
a.rm [options] [[-u] path/unit_name]... [ada_source.a]...

DESCRIPTION

The a.rm command is executed while positioned in a VADS directory. It removes all information associated with the named unit(s) or file(s). When unit_name is specified, the corresponding files in .nets, .objects, and .lines are removed and the ada.lib entries are deleted. 
 
When a file name ada_source.a is given, all net, object, and line number files are removed for each unit defined in the file, and the appropriate entries are deleted from ada.lib.  A name ending in .a is taken to be an Ada source file name unless the -u option is given. 
 
Unit names with dotted notation such as aaa.bbb or aaa.bbb.ccc are taken to be the names of Ada subunits. 

OPTIONS

-b (body) Delete the bodies of the specified units named files. 

-f (file) Remove the Ada source file in addition to the compiler-generated files whenever all units in a file are deleted. 

-i (interactive) Prompt for confirmation before deleting information for any units. 

-s (specification) Remove the compilation information for the specifications of the specified units. 

-u (unit) Force the next name to be treated as a unit even though it ends in .a. 

-v (verbose) List the units as they are removed. 

-V (verify) List the units that would be removed, but do not remove them.
