- <h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
- <em>db.droptable</em> drops 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.droptable</em> is a front-end
- to <em><a href="db.execute.html">db.execute</a></em> to allow easier
- usage. To some extent it is verified if the table is connected to a
- vector map to avoid accidental table removal.
- <h2>EXAMPLES</h2>
- <h3>Removing an attribute table from default database</h3>
- <div class="code"><pre>
- # show default database
- db.connect -p
- # show available tables
- db.tables -p
- # this will show what would happen
- db.droptable table=sometable
- # actually drop the table
- db.droptable -f table=sometable
- </pre></div>
- <h3>Removing an attribute table from given database</h3>
- <em>db.droptable</em> allows defining optionally <b>driver</b>
- and <b>database</b> options different from default connection settings
- (<tt>db.connect -p</tt>).
- <div class="code"><pre>
- # drop the table from SQLite database
- db.droptable -f table=sometable driver=sqlite database=/opt/sqlite.db
- </pre></div>
