Usage

  emuDBhandle,
  superlevelName,

  force = FALSE,
  verbose = TRUE
)

Arguments

emuDBhandle	emuDB handle as returned by load_emuDB
superlevelName	name of super-level of linkDefinition
sublevelName	name of sub-level of linkDefinition
force	delete all links belonging to the linkDefinition (USE WITH CAUTION! VERY INVASIVE AKTION!)
verbose	be verbose. Ask to delete links if force is TRUE.

Details

Link type descriptions:

• "ONE_TO_MANY"A single ITEM of the super-level can be linked to multiple ITEMs of the sub-level

• "MANY_TO_MANY"Multiple ITEMs of the super-level can be linked to multiple ITEMs of the sub-level

• "ONE_TO_ONE"A single ITEM of the super-level can be linked to a single ITEM of the sub-level

For all link types the rule applies that no links are allowed to cross any other links. Further, a linkDefinition can not be removed, if there are links present in the emuDB.
