DeleteAt

NAME DeleteAt

PROTOTYPE

#include "ISTable.h"

int ISTable::DeleteAt(int colIndex, int rowIndex,
                      int updateNumRows = 1);

EXAMPLE

#include "ISTable.h"

ISTable * pTable = new ISTable();

... // do table maniputation 

// Prune all bad values from table
for (int i = pTable->GetNumColumns() - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
  for (int j = pTable->GetNumRows() - 1; j >= 0; j--) {
    CifString cs;
    pTable->GetCell(cs, i, j);
    if (!cs.Compare(BAD_VALUE))
      pTable->DeleteAt(i, j);
  }
}

PURPOSE

DeleteAt erases all the data of a particular cell. It also removes the cell from the table. WARNING: the shape of the table may change.

RECEIVES

colIndex	The index of the column of the cell to be deleted.
rowIndex	The index of the row of the cell to be deleted.
updateNumRows	Used internally to avoid recompution of the number of rows. This parameter does not need to be bothered with. The default is to recompute. This is the safest thing anyway, so ignore this parameter.

RETURN VALUE

A negative value indicates an error or warning.

REMARKS

This method is NOT safe after index creation.
