Delete existing Common Data Format (CDF) file
cdflib.delete(cdfId)
cdflib.delete(cdfId)
deletes the existing
CDF file specified by the identifier cdfId
. If
the CDF file is a multi-file format CDF, the cdflib.delete
function
also deletes the variable files (having file extensions of .z0
, .z1
,
etc.).
Create a CDF file, and then delete it. To run this example, you must be in a writable folder.
cdfId = cdflib.create('mytempfile.cdf'); % Verify that the file was created. ls *.cdf mytempfile.cdf % Delete the file. cdflib.delete(cdfId) % Verify that the file no longer exists. ls *.cdf
This function corresponds to the CDF library C API routine CDFdeleteCDF
.
To use this function, you must be familiar with the CDF C
interface. Read the CDF documentation at the CDF website
.
