deleting files in the folder [message #326444]

Hi All,
In my application i written the code like this,

IFolder folder = project.getFolder("app");
IResource resources[] = folder.members();

int length1 = resources.length;
for (int i = 0; i < length1; i++) {
{
resources[i].delete(true, null);
}

int length1 = folder.members().length;

In this code i am deleting all the resources in a particular folder.
after that i am checking the members length for that folder. I am
expecting that length should be 0.

If i run this code i am getting the same number for length1 and length2.
But in the workspace my folder(app) is empty.

I don't know why this is happening.

Thanks for your help.

Ponraj,

Maybe it's zero in both cases?
