AttemptRemNamedObject

Attempt to remove a named object.

Declaration

Source position: utility.pas line 266

function AttemptRemNamedObject(

  Obj: PNamedObject

):LongInt;

Function result

If the NamedObject can be removed, then it will be removed from the list. Otherwise the routine will just return. If the NamedObject has a removal message associated with it that message will be returned to the owner of the NamedObject.

Description

Attempts to remove an object from whatever NameSpace it's in. You must have found the object first (in order to get a use count) before trying to remove it. If the object is in use or is in the process of being removed, this function will return a failure code. If the object is fully removed, the object will then be available to be FreeNamedObject().
