object, if I retrieve the OID of my object (example System.MySystemObject) will the Destroy($oid) function do the right thing? Or is there an easier way? I am kind of confused because to destroy the object I would have to create another instance? Right? That way I could get the OID of the object. I of course don't want to destroy the system object alltogether (duh). I just want to detroy the namespace (in this case MySystemObject).
Yeah, don't do that. That would be BAD. Just removing the .schema file effectively removes the namespace. Unfortunately, a consideration that was missed in the original design was uninstalling schemas, and there is no explicit way to remove or 'de-populate' a namespace. Removing the schema file removes all knowledge of the data from the database, but the data itself lingers, unseen.
