All or Whole

All and Whole are determiners.

We use them before nouns and with other determiners to refer to a total number or complete set of things in a group.

-All the cast had food poisoning. They were forced to cancel the show. (all+determiner+noun).

-The whole cast. (determiner+whole+noun).

-All my family lives abroad. Or, My whole family lives abroad.

We often use all and the whole with of the.

-She complains all of the time. Or, ... She complains the whole of the time. 

We use a/an with whole but not with all.

-I spent a whole day looking for a book.

Not ...... all a day.

- Wholly means entirely.

Hope this helps.
