Help needed with DELETING COLLECTIONS

Question

Hi,
I need help with the following.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/appdev.101/b10992/mvl_advanc.htm#sthref1337
According to the above :
Deleting All Collections for the Current Application
Use the method DELETE_ALL_COLLECTIONS to delete all collections defined in the current application. For example:
HTMLDB_COLLECTION.DELETE_ALL_COLLECTIONS;
Deleting All Collections in the Current Session
Use the method DELETE_ALL_COLLECTIONS_SESSION to delete all collections defined in the current session. For example:
HTMLDB_COLLECTION.DELETE_ALL_COLLECTIONS_SESSION;
Does the DELETE_ALL_COLLECTIONS delete all current collections for a specific user or does it mean delete all collections in an application irrespective of who the users are.
eg.(a) if I had 20 users logged on and they each have a collection called 'Collection1' would DELETE_ALL_COLLECTIONS remove collection1 from all 20 users or just 1.
eg.(b)if I had a user that had 3 collections for the current session and I wanted to delete all three in the current session do I use DELETE_ALL_COLLECTIONS or DELETE_ALL_COLLECTIONS_SESSION?
Hopefully some one can assist me with this query.

Hi, you could test this yourself. Run 2 sessions, populate a collection of the same name from each session, then delete all collections from session 1. Then, check to see if the collection still exists in session 2. Cheers.
