= Using modelglue.!GenericDelete =

When this message is broadcast, the !DataController will attempt to delete a record from a given table.

This message is configured by using the following <argument> tags:

  1. Object (Required) - The name of the table from which to delete.
  1. Criteria (Required) - A list of viewstate values to use as filters. Any value listed whose name matches a column in the target table will be used as a filter in the query's WHERE clause.

== Examples ==

=== A Basic Generic Delete ===

To perform a basic delete on the Contact table, the following <message> tag could be added to an <event-handler>:

{{{
<message name="modelglue.GenericDelete">
    <argument name="object" value="Contact" />
    <argument name="criteria" value="contactId" />
</message>
}}}

Assuming an event-handler name of "contact.delete", visiting the event handler with the following URL would result in deleting the contact with a !ContactId of 42.

index.cfm?event=contact.delete&contactId=42
