SYNTAX

ObsoleteNameRevisions [name… | -a] [-project projectName] [-r] [-u user]

DESCRIPTION

The ObsoleteNameRevisions command lets you mark a symbolic name as obsolete. Obsolete names do not appear in the Select Files in Name pop-up menu in the Check Out window.

This built-in command was added in the v. 3.5 MPW Shell.

INPUT

None

OUTPUT

None, unless you omit the name parameter. If you omit this parameter, ObsoleteNameRevisions write to standard output a list of all the obsolete symbolic names in the current project (and subprojects if the -r option was specified). The list appears in the form of UnobsoleteNameRevisions commands.

STATUS

ObsoleteNameRevisions can return the following status codes:

PARAMETERS

Names the project which contains the symbolic name to obsolete. This becomes the current project for this command.

-r

-u user

Identifies the name of the current user.

EXAMPLES
