- <h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
- <em>db.dropcolumn</em> drops a column from an attribute table.
- If the <b>-f</b> force flag is not given then nothing is removed, instead
- a preview of the action to be taken is printed.
- <h2>NOTES</h2>
- <em>db.dropcolumn</em> is a front-end to <em>db.execute</em> to allow easier
- usage with a special workaround for the SQLite driver to support column
- drop also for SQLite tables.
- <h2>EXAMPLE</h2>
- Dropping a column (North Carolina sample dataset):
- <p><div class="code"><pre>
- # work on own copy
- g.copy vect=roadsmajor,myroads
- db.describe -c myroads
- # only shows what would happen:
- db.dropcolumn myroads column=SHAPE_LEN
- # actually drops the column
- db.dropcolumn -f myroads column=SHAPE_LEN
- db.describe -c myroads
- </pre></div>
