PDELLB − Deletes the elements between the specified first and second labels. 

Operating States: PHOP, ∗, STOP, ∗
PHIGS standard function

Syntax

PDELLB (LABEL1, LABEL2)

Argument     Data Type       Access   Description
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
LABEL1       Integer         Read     First element in the label range
LABEL2       Integer         Read     Last element in the label range
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Description

PDELLB deletes the elements between the specified first and second labels.  The specified labels are not deleted.  (Use the PDEL function to delete a label element.) 

This function initiates a search, as it would in a PSEPLB operation, in the following manner:

1It searches for the first label identifier, starting at the element pointer position. 

2It searches for the second label identifier, starting with the element following the first label identifier. 

If either of the specified labels does not exist in the search range, the operation generates an error condition and no elements are deleted.
