db.droptable  drops  an  attribute  table.   If  the  -f force flag is not given then nothing is removed,
       instead a preview of the action to be taken is printed.

       # show default database
       db.connect -p
       # show available tables
       db.tables -p
       # this will show what would happen
       db.droptable table=sometable
       # actually drop the table
       db.droptable -f table=sometable

   Removinganattributetablefromgivendatabasedb.droptable  allows  defining  optionally  driver and database options different from default connection
       settings (db.connect -p).
       # drop the table from SQLite database
       db.droptable -f table=sometable driver=sqlite database=/opt/sqlite.db

db.droptable  - Drops an attribute table.

db.droptable is a front-end to db.execute to allow easier usage. To some extent it  is  verified  if  the
       table is connected to a vector map to avoid accidental table removal.
