KEYWORDS

SYNOPSIS

       db.droptable
       db.droptable help
       db.droptable [-f] table=name  [--verbose]  [--quiet]

   Flags:
       -f
           Force removal (required for actual deletion of files)

       --verbose
           Verbose module output

       --quiet
           Quiet module output

   Parameters:
       table=name
           Table to drop

DESCRIPTION

       db.droptable  drops  an  attribute  table.   If  the  -f force flag is not given then nothing is removed,
       instead a preview of the action to be taken is printed.

NOTES

       db.droptable is a front-end to db.execute to allow easier usage. To some extent it  is  verified  if  the
       table is connected to a vector map to avoid accidential table removal.

EXAMPLE

       Removing an attribute table:

       # show available tables
       db.tables -p
       # this will show what would happen
       db.droptable table=sometable
       # actually drop the table
       db.droptable -f sometable
