## Description
|
|
|
|
Reliable and fast directory removal functions.
|
|
|
|
* `remove_dir_all` - on non-Windows this is a re-export of
|
|
`std::fs::remove_dir_all`. For Windows an implementation that handles the
|
|
locking of directories that occurs when deleting directory trees rapidly.
|
|
|
|
* `remove_dir_contents` - as for `remove_dir_all` but does not delete the
|
|
supplied root directory.
|
|
|
|
* `ensure_empty_dir` - as for `remove_dir_contents` but will create the
|
|
directory if it does not exist.
|
|
|
|
```rust,no_run
|
|
extern crate remove_dir_all;
|
|
|
|
use remove_dir_all::*;
|
|
|
|
fn main() {
|
|
remove_dir_all("./temp/").unwrap();
|
|
remove_dir_contents("./cache/").unwrap();
|
|
}
|
|
```
