<h1><delete></h1>
|
|||
|
<p> Deletes a file, fileset or directory. </p>
|
|||
|
<p> Deletes either a single file, all files in a specified directory and its sub-directories, or a set of files specified by one or more filesets. </p>
|
|||
|
<p> If the <code>file</code> or <code>dir</code> attribute is set then the fileset contents will be ignored. To delete the files in the fileset ommit the <code>file</code> and <code>dir</code> attributes in the <code><delete></code> element. </p>
|
|||
|
<p> If the specified file or directory does not exist, no error is reported. </p>
|
|||
|
<p class="i2">
|

|
<b>Note:</b> Read-only files cannot be deleted. Use the <a href="../tasks/attrib.html"><attrib></a> task first to remove the read-only attribute. </p>
