Hi Minne,
I do this now as I am testing ingest as part of our repo workflow. I have
to delete 1000's of objects. Currently I am using findObjects to get a
list of PIDS. Then I use this list to purge each PID. You can also grab
all the PIDs directly from mySQL. Here is a snippet of the code using
findObjects. This is Java code
*if*(sessionToken==*null*)
fedoraResponse = FedoraClient.*findObjects*().query("pid~*").resultFormat(
"xml").pid(*true*).maxResults(maxResults).execute(fc);
*else
*
fedoraResponse = FedoraClient.*findObjects*().query("pid~*").resultFormat(
"xml").pid(*true*
).maxResults(maxResults).sessionToken(sessionToken).execute(fc);
