4.6.2. STRUCTURE NETWORK DELETION

DELETE STRUCTURE NETWORK deletes the specified structure as well as the descendants that form the network having this structure as its root. However, a flag (called the reference handling flag) controls the effect of this function:

• If the flag is delete, the specified root structure is deleted as well as all its descendants in the network.
• If the flag is keep, the specified root structure is deleted as well as its descendants in the network except for those referred to by structures that are not descendants of the specified structure (see Figure 4.6.2.a). The root structure is always deleted (whatever the flag setting).

Individual network structure deletion follows the same rules as for DELETE STRUCTURE (Section 4.6.1), that is to say, with deletion of the EXECUTE STRUCTURE element (if it exists) from the parent structure.
