DeleteAllReparseRules Method

Deletes all reparse rules.

Syntax

cbfilter.deleteAllReparseRules(productGUID, [callback])

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for this method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'data' is the value returned by the method.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

This method deletes all reparse rules associated with the application identified by ProductGUID.

If the rules are deleted successfully, this method returns true; otherwise, it returns false.

In most cases, the value passed for the ProductGUID parameter should be the same one that was used to call the Initialize method. Please refer to the AddReparseRule method's documentation for more information.

To delete reparse rules individually, use the DeleteReparseRule method instead.

Note: The methods and properties related to rule management are not intended to be used from multiple threads at once. Applications that wish to use said methods and properties from multiple threads (such as, e.g., during the AfterFilterAttachToVolume and AfterFilterDetachFromVolume events) are responsible for employing proper thread synchronization techniques to ensure that manipulation and enumeration of the rule lists occurs in a thread-safe manner.
