FUNCTION REFERENCE
DELETEDIRECTORY(NAME)
DELETEDIRECTORY(NAME)
ARGUMENT TYPE DESCRIPTION
name cstring The directory to be deleted.
DESCRIPTION
Remove a directory, its subdirectories and contents from the CompactFlash. Note that the
filing system used on the card does not support long filenames, and that if backslashes are
included in the pathname to separate path elements, they must be doubled-up per Crimson’s
rules for string constants as described in the chapter on Writing Expressions. To avoid this
complication, forward slashes can be used in place of backslashes without the need for such
doubling. The function returns a value of one if it succeeds, and a value of zero if it fails.
FUNCTION TYPE
This function is active.
RETURN TYPE
int.
EXAMPLE
Success := DeleteDirectory(“/logs/custom”)
