The DROP OBJECT directive is used to delete an object.
DROP OBJECT, DELETE OBJECT and the REF( ) function can all be used to delete an object. Only objects whose reference count is 1 can be deleted. Once an object is destroyed, its identifier may be reassigned to another object, although this is not recommended. All objects are destroyed when the application issues a START directive or if the END directive is entered at the Command mode.
REF(READ obj_id) returns the current reference count value. All calls to REF( ) return the current reference count (or 0 if deleted).
