<p>The Free Object (QTAFROBJ) API will &quot;suspend&quot; a document object
specified by the caller of the API. A call to this API forces the system storage
that is occupied by the data portion of the specified object to be freed. Only
the data portion of the objects is freed, not the descriptions of the object.
This function is similar to the save with storage freed option, STG(*FREE),
on the Save Document Library Object (SAVDLO) command.</p>
<p>The caller of this API is required to verify that the specified object has
not been changed since it was last saved.</p>
<p><strong>Notes:</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>To use this API, you need the Media and Storage Extensions feature of the
i5/OS.</li>
<li>For a document of type *DOC, the caller must be enrolled in the system
distribution directory to use this API.</li>
</ol>

<h3><a name="HDRFLDXXXX">Field Descriptions</a></h3>
<p><strong>Length of the path name structure.</strong> The length, in bytes, of
the path name structure. This field must be set to zero if the object does not
have a path name structure passed. Valid values are 0 and 48 through 32048.</p>
<p><strong>Object library.</strong> The library name of the object to be freed.
The special value is:</p>
<table cellpadding="5">

<td align="left" valign="top"><em>*PATH</em></td>
<td align="left" valign="top">The path name structure contains the object

<td align="left" valign="top"><em>*PATH</em></td>
<td align="left" valign="top">The path name structure contains the object

the API. Possible values follow:</p>
<table cellpadding="5">

<p><strong>Offset to path name structure.</strong> The offset from the start of
the structure, in bytes, to a path name structure that contains object path
name and translation information. This field must be set to zero if the object
does not have a path name structure. Valid values are 0 and 48 through
32048.</p>
<p><strong>Path name structure.</strong> The path name structure and
translation information for the suspended object. The path name structure
contains information such as CCSID, country or region, and language. For more information
on this structure, see <a href="../apiref/pns.htm">Path name format</a>. The path name
must be in the library file system format; for example,
/QSYS.LIB/QDOC.LIB/DOC1.DOC</p>
<p><strong>Reserved.</strong> An ignored field. This field must be set to
blanks.</p>
