BuiltinActions :: DeleteEntry - Remove or delete currently selected entry (Ctrl-D)

The function removes or deletes the entry currently selected in the data source from the collection. In order to prevent users from miss-deleting entries, a delete confirmation can be requested. By setting the option QL_Delete to 'YES', the action displays a message box in order to confirm deleting the entry.

The delete action behaves the same way as the remove action, but the default context menu or toolbar for collections detect, whether removing an instance means deleting is completely or not. When the collection is the owner of the instance, a delete action is displayed, a remove action otherwise. When, however, referring to the action in the application, one may call either the DeleteEntry or the RemoveEntry action.

The action is provided by default in standard context menus created by the system.
