sceIoRmdir can't remove a directory which is not empty?

[rzxiao]

hi ,I am new here. My question is: Could sceIoRmdir remove a directory whick is not empty. Because it always return <0 when directory is not enpty.

And is there a function to do it ?

Thanks very much!

You would have to delete everything inside that directory to successfully delete the directory. Some simple pseudocode that you could translate into proper code:

Code: Select all

void recursiveDelete(string dir)
{
 handle h = opendir(dir);
 while (string entry = readdir(h))
 {
  string fullname = dir + '/' + entry;

  if (isdir(fullname))
  {
   recursiveDelete(fullname);
   rmdir(fullname);
  }
  else
   unlink(fullname);
 }
 closedir(h);
}
