Method Detail

• deleteRecursively

  public static boolean deleteRecursively​(@Nullable
                                          File root)

  Delete the supplied File - for directories, recursively delete any nested directories or files as well.

  Note: Like File.delete(), this method does not throw any exception but rather silently returns false in case of I/O errors. Consider using deleteRecursively(Path) for NIO-style handling of I/O errors, clearly differentiating between non-existence and failure to delete an existing file.

  Parameters:

  root - the root File to delete

  Returns:

  true if the File was successfully deleted, otherwise false

  Delete the supplied File — for directories, recursively delete any nested directories or files as well.

  Parameters:

  root - the root File to delete

  Returns:

  true if the File existed and was deleted, or false if it did not exist

  Throws:

  IOException - in the case of I/O errors
