Java and OpenVMS File System? DELETE version?

» close window

The Question is:

 
Hi
How can I delete only the latest version of a file using a java class?
Because using file.delete() I delete all versions of this file and not only the
 last one.
Thank you!


The Answer is :

 
  The Java language does not particularly have the concept of file
  versioning.
 
  You can use a call out to an OpenVMS DCL command or a call to an
  OpenVMS RTL routine such as lib$delete_file().
 
  Please upgrade to a supported OpenVMS Alpha release, and please
  apply the mandatory ECO kits for the OpenVMS release in use.
