Abstract
Deleting objects used or managed by an application or application or application instance is disclosed. Second program instructions identify the objects. Second program instructions write an executable program to delete the objects which were identified. Objects than can be deleted include local queues, alias queues, remote queues, security objects, channel objects, process objects, etc. The first program instructions identify a queue object and determine whether the queue object contains a work item. If so, the second program instructions write into the executable program a command to clear the work item. Deleting a queue object managed by an application or application instance is also disclosed. Channels used by other applications or other application instances to lock and access a queue defined by the queue object are identified. Then, the channels are stopped. Afterwards, the work item(s) on the queue are cleared and then the queue object is deleted.
