delete all output registered in buildmaps

SVB is a governemental orginizations, that serves all 17 mil. Dutch citizens. Many billion euro's are concerned. We have to maintain strict security rules. One is that we need to keep a close connection between sources and executables. ELM has to be able to garantuee that the sources in the repo reflect the loadlibrarycontents. So when we delete a cobol source, the buildproces needs to delete all output from this source, including the loadmodule. Deletion should occur always and if no succes, it has to be detected easily. But for this info we have to take a very close look at the build-log. I'd expect a warning at least when the delete is unscuccesfull. Maybe use the 'delete Buildable File List' and flag the unsuccesful deletes. Then a postbuild script could be invoked to read this file and try to delete the unscuccesfull deletes again.

    The build map delete process has been enhanced to attempt to delete all files in the list. If an error is encountered on a specific file, a message is issued to document the error and the file on which it was encountered. Error processing has been enhanced to provide documentation on the error and not just quit the process.

    The most desirable is that the build does what is it suppose to do, delete all output registred in the buildmap. The second best is that the build indicates that a delete couldn't be done, so it gives a yellow (of better a red) flag when the delete fails. This will be an extra attention to check whether the post-build script succeeded in deleting where the build didn't

We have a problem updating the build space on Zos. If we delete a copybook from the stream, it is deleted in the buildmap but not in the build space(build resource prefix) on the Zos. So if a program still uses it, when compiling we find the copyb...
